An appeals court on Friday overturned the conviction and life sentence of a man found guilty of killing a U.S. Border Patrol agent whose death exposed the botched federal gun operation known as “Fast and Furious” has been overturned, a U.S. appeals court said Friday.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals vacated the convictions of Heraclio Osorio-Arellanes, saying his constitutional due process rights had been violated, and sent the case back to the U.S. District Court in Arizona for further proceedings.
Osorio-Arellanes was sentenced in 2020 in the Dec. 14, 2010, fatal shooting of Agent Brian Terry while he was on a mission in Arizona.

I despise that man! He got away with so much crime and corruption while Obama's AG and was never held responsible for one thing. Each time another Trump associate is sentenced to prison, I think of Eric Holder and the way he was just excused for ignoring a subpoena and being found in contempt.
And now the killer of Brian Terry has his conviction overturned. He used one of Holder's smuggled guns to do the killing.
He did it with Obama's blessings. Bet the Feds will pay this guy off too.
barry obama, the turd the keeps on stinking
RECHARGE AND RETRY THE KILLER> NO MATTER WHAT IT COSTS.
Holder is never more in charge than w/ Camela.
The Ninth Circuit strikes again!
Fast and Furious was the inspiration for my novel.
!!!!!!!!!!!! Pissed off at two tier justice.
Wasn’t the creep here illegally anyway?
Did the Pedophiles in Black Robes think that Terry’s rights were violated too? Friggin punks.
I recall a lot of conversations here about the entire crime and the cover up by the Obama corruption (no scandals in his administration indeed. Ha!)
Gotta crack a few eggs, or a few billion, to make a glorious revolution omelette.
There was also a missed opportunity for Mexico to extradite all ATF agents involved and their bosses during the Fast & Furious hearings.
*Our treaty with Mexico covering extraditions, allows for such actions.
