Bush Commutes Sentences Of Two Imprisoned Border Patrol Agents
President Bush apparently heard and has now answered the calls by many conservatives to pardon Ramos and Compean, the two border patrol agents doing a ten year stretch for shooting a drug smuggler in the ass on the border.
However, instead of a full pardon the president decided to give a commutation to each of the men. He wanted to recognize that crimes were committed in this case and a jury found them guilty. But the sentences for each of the men were too draconian — a sentiment that even the prosecutor who put them away shared.
By commuting the sentences of the two men, they will in effect be given credit for time served and will be released on March 20th.
