Jose Compean & Ignacio Ramos

Posted on | November 19, 2009 | No Comments

Jose Compean and Ignacio Ramos were United States Boarder Patrol Agents shot an unarmed illegal alien marijuana smuggler. The suspect was attempting to cross the border with a purported 743 pounds of weed, when Compean told the suspect to stop and the suspect refused to obey. Compean mistakenly thought that he heard gun shot, so Compean fired his gun at the suspect. Ramos, hearing Compean’s fire, thought the suspect had shot at Compean and shot at the suspect and hit him in the ass. The suspect fled with the bullet in his backside.

Compean and Ramos were both convicted in federal court and given huge sentences for shooting this unarmed brigand. Over 200,000 people signed a petition for a pardon, and on his last day in office George W. Bush, commuted the sentences. Think the Santa Maria had 743 pounds of weed on it in 1492?

Was there any tobacco or marijuana on the Santa Maria in 1492?

Regular folks can't imagine that the President would actually consider their pardon application let alone grant them a pardon. That's not how it works. The Department of Justice reviews the federal pardon application and carefully scrutinizes it. Only after the pardon application gets past the DOJ, does the President's staff even get involved. That is why it is so important to have an experienced pardon attorney author your application so the application has a chance with the Department of Justice.
