Prosecution and Imprisonment of Border Patrol Agents? This contains 3 different letters. It will take a few minutes to read.
The prison assault against Agent Ramos is not simply “regrettable” – it is intolerable. BOP is well aware of the inherent risks that federal agents always face when they are themselves sent to prison, and must interact with inmates who may have committed crimes they used to prosecute. And if Yazoo City prison officials allowed its inmate population to see a TV news story that highlighted Mr. Ramos’ case, I do not understand why they were not extra vigilant to ensure Agent Ramos’ safety.

I find these circumstances disturbing, and therefore ask that you provide me with the following information:

Please describe all of the circumstances behind the recent assault against Agent Ramos while in federal custody, including any efforts undertaken to ensure Agent Ramos’ safety.
Please describe and provide all documents relating to the basis for his security classification, his placement at Yazoo City FCC, whether he is in Yazoo’s Low or Medium security facility, and BOP’s rationale and risk-based findings that led to his designation there.
Please describe any warnings and opportunities given to Agent Ramos to accept protective custody, explain whether after his initial refusal he was given any opportunity to reconsider protective custody once incarcerated and aware of added risks, and any security measures taken in recognition of his status as a former federal agent even in the absence of his placement in protective custody.
Please provide copies of any documents relating to the investigation of this incident, including all witness statements, summaries of witness interviews, and any conclusions or reports.
I have asked the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee to investigate this matter, and I therefore ask that you provide me with this requested information as expeditiously as possible.

She wouldn't be onboard with this unless she sees an opportunity to tar the administration. However, if it means these 2 agents get a review of the case and released I guess the Justice Dept will just have to take its lumps.

She forgot to ask for the 'immediately after the attack' check up by the nurse, but she may not have known of it yet. I really don't like her AgJobs bill, but I like her, generally. Until this year I always voted for her, but couldn't this year due to the Senate Bill she supported.

She is moderate and well thought of and is using the Democrats' new majority to get the Judiciary Committee she has been on forever to investigate the matter.

Go, Diane!

Guys, as I said, I voted against her in this last election. However, she is the kind of Democrat you want to approach civilly, if only because she seems to listen and doesn't say one thing and do something else. She came out publicly AFTER the election last year and said she thought the Senate immigration bill she had voted for last year was 'too big'. If people pull off of the fence I would expect her to be one of the ones to remind people that an overwhelming majority voted for it before the election.

As I said, I don't always agree with her, and overall disagree with her on immigration. However, she is a fair broker, and is known as such. One of the best things the border patrol agents have going for them is HER interest in this. Tancredo and his 90 are a given, her interest Pelozi and Bush can't ignore.

Senator Feinstein hates Freedom & America.
And the people who elect her do too.
She is the ultimate Commie Goose Stepper.
She wants Open Borders. She receives thousands of votes each election from illegals.
