Third Gun Linked to 'Fast and Furious' Identified at Border Agent's Murder Scene

EXCLUSIVE: Third Gun Linked to 'Fast and Furious' Identified at Border Agent's Murder Scene

By William Lajeunesse

Published September 09, 2011

| FoxNews.com



     A third gun linked to "Operation Fast and Furious" was found at the murder scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, new documents obtained exclusively by Fox News suggest, contradicting earlier assertions by federal agencies that police found only two weapons tied to the federal government's now infamous gun interdiction scandal.

     Sources say emails support their contention that the FBI concealed evidence to protect a confidential informant. Sources close to the Terry case say the FBI informant works inside a major Mexican cartel and provided the money to obtain the weapons used to kill Terry.

     Unlike the two AK-style assault weapons found at the scene, the third weapon could more easily be linked to the informant. To prevent that from happening, sources say, the third gun "disappeared."

     In addition to the emails obtained by Fox News, an audio recording from a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agent investigating the Terry case seems to confirm the existence of a third weapon. In that conversation, the agent refers to an "SKS assault rifle out of Texas" found at the Terry murder scene south of Tucson.

     The FBI refused to answer a detailed set of questions submitted to officials by Fox News. Instead, agency spokesman Paul Bresson said, "The Brian Terry investigation is still ongoing so I cannot comment." Bresson referred Fox News to court records that only identify the two possible murder weapons.

     However, in the hours after Terry was killed on Dec. 14, 2010, several emails written to top ATF officials suggest otherwise.

The pucker factor for Holder and company just increased exponentially.

Same ole, same ole.  If this happened under Bush, we would hear about it non-stop and they would have him impeached.

Considering all of the denials and stonewalling, I think this may be the one thing that finally tips the pot off of the stove.  Holder was out accusing the Republicans of playing politics with the Gunwalker/Fast and Furious investigation just this past Tuesday.  We will see, though....

Yep.  Can you say 'high crimes and misdemeanors'?

Just another day in Chicagoland USA.
