Congrats, we’ll need you out there for sure.

Be safe however, as you well know the smugglers of illegal aliens and/or drugs will not hesitate to kill our agents. In this video they talk about the border agent killer being arrested in Mexico however only a few days later he was released from prison. The reason? The US failed to file charges with the Mexican authorities. No charges = No prison - and he was let go.

Here’s a statement from Commissioner Basham and Chief David Aguilar
(06/25/2008)


On January 19, 2008, Border Patrol Agent Luis Aguilar was murdered by a suspected drug smuggler who subsequently fled to Mexico after the crime occurred. The suspect, Jesus Albino Navarro-Montes, was arrested on January 23, 2008, in Sonora, Mexico by Mexican authorities. He was then transferred to Mexicali, Baja California and incarcerated on Mexican charges pending criminal prosecution.

Yesterday, to our dismay, we learned that the suspect had been released from a Mexicali prison based on a judge’s orders last week. All of us are shocked that he is no longer in custody. Let us assure you, as we did Agent Aguilar’s family, that since learning of this we have been working with our Federal and Mexican law enforcement partners at the highest levels to ensure that every resource will be used to bring new charges and to bring the suspect back into custody and to ultimate justice.

Let us be absolutely clear in our outrage that the suspect is no longer behind bars. Although delayed, justice will not be denied for Luis and his family, and none of us will rest until Agent Aguilar’s killer is held accountable for his heinous and cowardly crime.

W. Ralph Basham
Commissioner
