I believe they should have been charged with evidence tampering and nothing more. They called their integrity into question by picking up their bullet casings and filing false reports. However, 12 years is a ridiculous sentence for two men trying to do a very difficult job with little support.
The U.S. Attorney that prosecuted this case should become the new poster boy for "I Love Mexico, let them all come on in and corrupt our country." I mean give me a break, this guy went out of his way to find this dirtbag drug runner in Mexico and grant him immunity.
Absurd.

Well, I have been following this case, and all it's details. From what I have learned, they did not know he was hit in the first place.
I can comprehend FTFSI, as far as procedure, but I am just a civilian. I do find it difficult to understand why they are being sent to prison over this.
