[Alpha Mare]

Anyone want to bet that the murder weapon 'disappeared'?

TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) – Nine On Your Side has learned three of the four suspects arrested in the shootout that killed U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry will not be charged with his murder. In fact, all three suspects could be freed and deported sometime this week.

The FBI suspected bandits shot and killed Terry on the night of December 14th. Agents immediately arrested four suspects. But two weeks after Terry's killing, KGUN9 News learned the FBI had yet to charge them with murder.

Then on January 13th, the U.S. Attorney's office indicted the four suspects but only on immigration charges for illegal re-entry after deportation. The felony charge carries a prison sentence between six months to two years.

Now, exactly two months after Terry's murder, Nine On Your Side has learned through sources close to the case, three of the suspects will plead guilty to lesser misdemeanor charges and are expected to be released and deported within the next several days.

Unfortunately we're not always able to make a prosecutable case on people.

The slug that killed Terry came from an AK-47 dropped at the scene. The weapon was traced to a Phoenix gun store, which had reported the sale to ATF's "Project Gunrunner."

- The day after Terry was shot, sources say ATF arrested the man who bought that gun and many others, hoping to avoid embarrassment or an appearance of negligence.

"I was his stepmother for 25 years, and if it is the last thing I do, they are not going to let this case die," Carolyn Terry told Fox News.

"To me they're covering up, they're trying to cover up something. Why don't they come out and tell us the truth?"

Must be one of those guns bought under the wing of the BATF.

I heard on the radio that it was one of 2,500 bought by a Muslim and then sold in Mexico.
