An illegal immigrant border crosser was killed by a U.S. Border Patrol agent in January. The shooting has proven controversial, as there is some question about whether or not it was justified.
From the article:
A U.S. Border Patrol agent who fatally shot an illegal entrant in January near Douglas could find out whether he'll face criminal charges within two weeks.Cochise County Attorney Ed Rheinheimer said he won't wait much longer to review an enhanced version of a distant video filmed of the incident by a Border Patrol surveillance camera that was sent to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
Rheinheimer's office has already viewed the original, blurry digital video on compact disc but was hoping to see an enhanced version before deciding whether or not to press charges against Border Patrol agent Nicholas Corbett, 39, who shot and killed Francisco Javier DomÃnguez-Rivera, 22, of Puebla on Jan. 12 about 150 yards north of the border between Bisbee and Douglas.
