It’s being billed as ‘A Time for Justice’ fundraiser. Nacho Ramos and Jose Compean will be headed back to court in order to clear their names.

The fundraiser in Huston, Texas will raise funds for their legal defense team and the agents hope to finally be granted a fair trial where all the evidence can be heard.
