“Ex-agent wants his job back on border”

Why in the world this guy wants to go back on the job isn’t clear given what happened to him:

A former Border Patrol agent fired in 2001 for beating an undocumented immigrant on the head with a five-cell flashlight wants back wages and his old job now that a federal jury has found him not guilty of using excessive force.

David Sipe, 35, of Bethany, Okla., had argued he feared for his safety but initially was convicted in the beating.

Government prosecutors were accused of suppressing evidence, and the conviction was thrown out.

Sipe’s attorney, Jack Wolfe, described the first case against his client as a “pile of (excrement)” because, he said, some of the testimony was “bought and paid for.”

“We hope we shot a cannon across their bow so they won’t willy-nilly do this kind of stuff,” Wolfe said.

Isn’t that just grand? Suppressing evidence on behalf of illegals to prosecute someone trying to protect the border.

Tree of liberty, meet blood of tyrants.
