Wow! Is it my article, or is it that Ramos and Compean don't have much support among the article's readers? Anyway, I'm somewhat gratified to have recently learned that one morsel of justice has finally been deliverd in this case: Osvaldo Aldrete-Davila, the lawless Mexican criminal that started this entire mess, has been sentenced to 2 consecutive 57-month terms in federal prison for running his 2 huge loads of pot into our country.

It does kind of gnaw at me that his jail time is less than that of Ramos and Compean, and that he'll probably be living better in lockup than at home in Mexico.

I guess perhaps my article didn't fully respond to the question posed by the topic: Should Johnny Sutton be forced to testify? OK, well, yes, of course he should be forced to testify! The thing I don't understand, however, is this: What means would be used to force him? He's already ignored at least one Congressional subpoena! So I guess that means they'll have to send federal marshals to go get him and drag him into Congress in shackles, right?

Well, that would be fine with me. His prosecution of Ramos, Compean, and Edwards County (Texas) deputy Hernandez was clearly politically motivated. That's not how justice is served in the US. Sutton and his buddy George W. Bush simply ought to be ashamed, but it would be better if they spent the next 9 and a half years sharing a cell with their sweetheart, Aldrete-Davila. And, by the way, they should throw Homeland Security official Christopher Sanchez in there as well. Now THAT would be justice, and to hell with the Mexican government and the North American Union.
