Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, the illegal alien drug smuggler from Mexico who was shot by now-imprisoned former Border Patrol agents Ramos and Compean, was sentenced to 9 ½ years in prison marijuana smuggling yesterday. Davila, of course, was smuggling a load of marijuana when he was caught by Ramos and Compean but managed to escape back over the Mexican border. Prosecutors gave him immunity from prosecution for his testimony against the agents.

But Davila brazenly continued to smuggle even after the grant of immunity—and it is those audacious, subsequent crimes of which he now stands convicted. The great tragedy here, and great shame for our justice system, is that this horrid criminal got a smaller sentence for his crimes than the brave agents got for simply doing their jobs.
