A Border Patrol agent was sentenced to prison for his role in helping smuggle migrants past an immigration checkpoint in Texas.
The agent was arrested late last week. Customs and Border Protection, the agency that oversees the Border Patrol, said he has been suspended from his duties and said the agency is providing full cooperation with the investigation. “U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) stresses honor and integrity in every aspect of our mission and expects officers and agents to adhere to the oath they take to uphold and enforce the laws of this country,” the agency said. The Washington Times reached out to the office of the lawyer for Agent Tolson to ask for a comment but the call was disconnected.
