Family sues Border Patrol for death of son
Family sues Border Patrol for death of son. After being shot, Peraza fell onto the pavement and Billings tried to handcuff him but other agents pulled him away. I never once thought in shooting this kid. Another BP Agent said.
The parents of a Mexican teenager who was shot and killed by an El Paso Border Patrol agent in 2003 will seek to convince a federal judge that the shooting was not justified at a civil trial starting Friday.
