The Texas Minutemen will conduct its annual patrol on the border near Fabens in honor of imprisoned former Border Patrol agent Ignacio Ramos, said the group's founder, Shannon McGauley.
McGauley and Joe Loya, Ramos' father-in-law, called the event "Operation Free Ramos" and said it would take place next April in El Paso and Sierra Blanca. "Operation Free Ramos will provide extra eyes and ears for the overloaded Border Patrol and serves as a reminder of the extreme lack of justice that Ramos and other border agents get in our pro-open-border courts," McGauley said in a written statement.
