The family of a
park ranger shot to death on duty in Arizona and the father of
a victim of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks joined a Colorado
congressman in calling for the military to patrol the United
States' borders.
Bonnie Eggle, the mother of Kristopher
Eggle, who was shot to death trying to apprehend a Mexican
murder suspect who had fled into Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument
in August, said she believes her son died because there was nothing
to stop his shooter from crossing the border.
"He didn't deserve a bullet from an AK-47.
He didn't deserve a 6-foot grave. But that's what he got because
he was not cared for enough by those who could have made a difference,"
Eggle said. |
