Related to the case, the U.S. government in May charged Manuel Osorio-Arellanes with killing Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry last year using a gun purchased through the program.

Weirder and weirder, this thread says it wasn't either of the two firearms recovered where Terry was shot.

ATF sought to downplay guns scandal, emails show

"They said the FBI had determined that neither of the two AK-47 semiautomatics was the one that killed the agent."

Did a Fast and Furious weapon kill Agent Terry?

All we get are conflicting reports.

This is what happens when ONLY the alternative media pursues a scandal. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, this is the problem we face when the MSM chooses to not be involved. Granted, CBS broke it in the MSM and FOX has talked about it, but they've both just nibbled at the edges. As good as the work of Codrea and Vanderboeh has been, the fact of the matter is that they can not bring the same formidable resources to bear in this investigation that the MSM is capable of doing. Politicians see little to no benefit in even discussing it if it won't give them face time on ABCNNBCBS. Just as with “certifigate”, we are starting to see a lot of loose ends that are just left dangling....Honduras, Columbia county, FBI and DEA informants, CIA, State Dept. etc. So many tangents make the story difficult to explain in a four minute segment so it goes unreported......and a story that's unreported goes nowhere.....especially with politicians.
