Ignacio Ramos reported in 'emaciated' condition
Congressional aide says Border Patrol agent 'languishing in solitary'

A congressional aide who visited Ignacio Ramos in prison said the convicted Border Patrol agent appeared emaciated, losing more than 30 pounds in solitary confinement.

Ramos, who is appealing his 11-year sentence for the non-lethal shooting of a Mexican drug smuggler, has been in a "special housing unit" since he was beaten by inmates in February at the medium-security Federal Correctional Complex in Yazoo City, Miss., said Tara Setmayer, spokeswoman for Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, R-Calif.

"He was very happy to see me, but, overall, he was very emotional," Setmayer told WND. "He is demoralized. Languishing in solitary for 135 days takes its toll on anyone."

The men who bloodied Ramos with kicks from steel-toed boots are in the same unit, Setmayer said.

Although the prison tries to make a distinction, she noted, "the protective measures are punitive, so he suffers all of the same restrictions as those there for disciplinary reasons."

A lockdown had been implemented prior to Setmayer's visit June 11, and Ramos had not received a hot meal in two days, Setmayer said.

I cannot fully express the disgust and anger I have over the absolute injustice that was done to Ramos, Compean, Gilmer, Noe and others. Something has to be done. Hopefully once this amnesty garbage is finally put to rest, congress can take care of this. I believe Hunter, Tancredo
et all were going to start congressional hearing on this.

Bush ought to be in solitary confinement. Then he wouldn't be able to continue to ruin this country. Hopefully, these hearings will get both these border patrolman released.

These men deserve a Presidential pardon. After we kill this bill, we need to start faxing and calling and pushing for this.

These men are American heros, not criminals, they are being punished by the government for doing their jobs.

It should be clear that the government wants illegal immigration to continue.

I am planning to attend a rally in San Antonio.

He's not just ruining this country its the ENTIRE WORLD. He and Cheney should be locked away in a 3x5 padded room with only a slot in the door to allow a bowl of gruel and a glass of water to be slid in 3 times a day.

Maybe some letters of encouragement will help him
