Calderon gets another border cop
This story will not have a happy ending as the Department of Justice is picking up cold cases and targeting border patrol agents on their reports and the accuracy of their reporting. It appears to be a oxymoron from my point of view as the recent illegal activities of the ATF regarding the willingness to sell guns to the Mexican cartel and the allowance of these guns to kill American cops on the border or our cities has gone as a sanctioned event until a whistleblower revealed the corruption of those lying and hiding the facts of that case from the American citizens. To the best of my knowledge, these officials lied and deceived our citizens for purpose of not revealing their poor judgment and tactical mistakes in the war against the Mexican cartel who are buying guns in the USA. What gets this story twisted is they [U.S. officials] love the "lack of candor" charge, but the government’s top managers at Department of Homeland Security and the DOJ have been lying for years and continue to get away with it under the current administrative level of tolerances as they continue to push the blame of all this political whitewash down to the officers who work the trenches and give their blood sweat and tears to get the job done.
Today I read in a publication called The Hispanic Speaking News that “In Maine on Tuesday, a helicopter pilot with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection agency was arrested on charges of lying to federal agents in regards to an incident that occurred in the Rio Grande, and resulted in the death of Mexican man in 2005. the pilot, James Peters in now facing four counts of lying to federal agents who were investigating the death of Carlos Delgadillo Martinez, 22, who drowned in 2005 after Peters allegedly purposefully flew his helicopter too close to the victim. Federal prosecutors say Border Patrol agents working near one of the international bridges in Laredo saw a helicopter hovering low over two Mexican men on an inner tube in the Rio Grande on December 14th, 2005. According to federal records, radio transmissions revealed that the helicopter pilot told a Border Patrol agent that he was about to attempt to make the men “go back.” The helicopter’s rotor wash caused the inner tube the men were holding onto to flip over. At least one of the men lost their grip. Delgadillo Martinez’s body was found in the river on Christmas Day, 11 days later.”
Whatever happened to crossing the border is at your own risk and if for some reason the trip is too dangerous you assume all responsibility of your poor decision making on yourself.... or is there a double standards for illegal immigrants. It would appear that there is - One for citizens, one for Mexican Aliens. This madness if fed by the US government politically correct approach to all of Mexico’s complaints about border abuses by border agents that has netted numerous agents in a politically entwined web that has no purpose other than pleasing the Mexican government while demoralizing our border agents.
