Representatives Seek Pardons For Border Patrol Agents
Several members of Congress are asking that two convicted border patrol agents from El Paso be given pardons.

Representatives including Rep. Ted Poe of Texas said they intend to send a letter to the president asking that the sentences of agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean be commuted.

As KFOX reported, the agents were convicted of shooting a fleeing illegal drug smuggler last February during a nighttime altercation near Fabens.

Ramos and Compean were sentenced to 11- and 12-year prison terms, respectively.
