A federal court tonight has thrown out a case brought by the family of Brian Terry, the Border Patrol agent who was killed in a firefight on the Arizona-Mexico border in December 2010. Sharyl Attkisson reports that money already awarded to the family precludes this sort of case from proceeding.

The courts in CYA mode for Obama and Holder regarding Fast & Furious...

Just, frikkin’, DAMN !!!

[Hotlanta Mike]

So because the family received a death benefit as part of employment by the federal government by their son, the court is saying they cannot sue the government for other damages.

This is purely to keep discovery out of a court case. The family needs to appeal pronto.

Does the family have a legal fund set up? If so, we need to pimp it and contribute!

[knarf]

That's apparently what the court is trying to say, but I can't see a financial judgement eliminating a criminal charge.

If I shoot you and kill you ... and I pay your family a billion dollars ... does that mean I don't go to trial and receive judgement for murder ?

If that's where we are in our judicial system ... we MUST ...

I just stopped myself from being banned and being disappeared by the FBI.

This must be an issue of sovereign immunity. Obviously the government did not allow itself to be sued in this matter, why would they, they are guilty as charged.

Any American looking for justice these days sure as hell isn’t going to find it in the U.S. courts.

What about a wrongful death suite; as that the gov.’t knowingly sent both agents [if not more] out in areas knowing that they were in danger & did not properly equip them for such operations.

That should read: “OBAMA’S throws out Brian Terry family’s
case Successful appeal not likely”

[vette6387]

How about someone naming the “Judge” involved?

[sheana]

You are correct. We have been in the probate court system for almost 3 years now. I recently complained to our attorney that there is nothing just about our justice system. He agreed.

[MestaMachine]

Outrageous.

“’But, I do fear the loss of my honor and would rather die fighting than to have it said that I was without courage. So I will fight you, no matter how insurmountable it may seem, to the death if need be, in order that it may never be said of me that I was not a warrior.’ -Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry”

[ColdOne]

Horrible just fn horrible

[Red in Blue PA]

The family needs to say they are here illegally. Then the courts will bend over backwards for them.

Sounds like Feres Doctrine at work. Used it against us in the Army all the time...
