My apologies. I thought you had confused the circumstances of the Zapata and Terry incidents. Thank you for those links. Bookmarked. I didn't think they had caught any of the perps involved in the Zapata-Avila shooting. I can't find it now but Issa had said in an interview about the guns used in that shooting that "we may never know if they were F&F guns." Anyway, this is what I thought you were referring to...

FBI Criminal Informant Complicit in Brian Terry’s Death (PJM Exclusive)

The federal government will still not reveal if one of the two WASR-10 AK-pattern semi-automatic rifles located near the scene — provided to the Sinaloa cartel via Operation Fast and Furious — was the weapon that put a bullet through Brian Terry’s heart. The existence of a third recovered gun, an SKS carbine, has been disputed by the FBI despite the fact it had been talked about openly in the beginning of the investigation among federal agents.

Multiple sources tell PJM that this third weapon “disappeared” because it was the weapon carried by the FBI CI who ran the rip crew. When it was recovered near the scene of the murder and subsequently traced by the ATF, it traced back to the FBI CI via the gun shop in Texas where it was purchased.

"traced back to the FBI CI via the gun shop in Texas where it was purchased."

Which could be why there is no status of the three arrested in the third link I provided.

I just wanted to be sure that you knew that there were three agents that were shot by F&F guns.
