Convicted border agent trying to start over
Monday, January 18 @ 12:24:33 EST by williamg (628 reads) | Five years ago, Ignacio Ramos was pulling long
shifts as a senior U.S. Border Patrol agent, chasing smugglers and
immigrants along the Rio Grande. He'd coached Little League long enough
that dozens of teenagers called him “Coach Nacho.”
He and his wife, Monica, both born and raised in El Paso, were busy working and raising three boys.
Their life was, in his words, completely normal. Not boring. Just normal.
All he wants now, he says, is to have that back.

Border Patrol Agents Face Rockings
Wednesday, September 09 @ 15:01:59 EDT by alipac (969 reads) | Getting pelted with rocks -- it's an increasing trend for some local Border Patrol Agents.
Border Patrol Agents in Calexico, part of the El Centro sector, say
they've seen an increasing number of rockings. Since the 2009 fiscal
year began, agents say they've seen more than 100 rockings.
Agent Keith Croxton has experienced this first hand, and says it can be
scary. First thing, his "adrenaline level spikes; you clear yourself
and check your vehicle." After all, "anytime threat of health or well
being there is a level of fear involved."
