Fast and Furious scandal: Suspected triggerman in border agent's murder arrested

The cartel member suspected of shooting and killing Border Patrol agent Brian Terry in 2010 with a gun supplied by the U.S. government was arrested in Mexico Wednesday, senior law enforcement, Border Patrol, and congressional sources told Fox News.

The suspect, Heraclio Osorio-Arellanes, was apprehended by a joint U.S.-Mexico law enforcement task force that included the Drug Enforcement Administration, U.S. Marshals and the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC).

A $250,000 reward had been sought for information leading to the arrest of Osorio-Arellanes, who was captured at a ranch on the border of the Mexican states of Sinaloa and Chihuahua. U.S. authorities have said they will seek his extradition.

Terry was killed on Dec. 14, 2010 in a gunfight between Border Patrol agents and members of a five-man cartel "rip crew," which regularly patrolled the desert along the U.S.-Mexico border looking for drug dealers to rob.

The agent's death exposed Operation Fast and Furious, a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) operation in which the federal government allowed criminals to buy guns in Phoenix-area shops with the intention of tracking them once they made their way into Mexico. But the agency lost track of more than 1,400 of the 2,000 guns they allowed smugglers to buy. Two of those guns were found at the scene of Terry's killing.

I thought there were strict laws to prevent criminals from buying guns? I guess there must be a loophole that needs to be closed....

Too bad he didn't die while "resisting", as we'll never be able to execute him here because Mexico won't extradite unless we agree not to kill his sorry ass.

Speaking of the POS Eric Holder, just know he is making $25k a month after being hired by the state of Kalifornia to combat Trumps deportation of criminal aliens.

I hope they convict him and then go after all the people who were accessory to this murder. Wishful thinking, I know, but I can dream can't I?

Holder, Obama and their cronies that were involved in this were all committing felonies, and a murder with a gun occurred during their commission of these felonies, right? Book 'em Dano. You have the right to remain silent...
