For the first time, federal officials revealed Monday that murdered Border Patrol agent Brian Terry and an elite squad of federal agents first fired bean bags -- not bullets -- at a heavily armed drug cartel crew in the mountains south of Tucson in December 2011.
The announcement came as the Department of Justice unsealed an indictment charging five individuals allegedly involved in Terry's death. A sixth suspect has also been charged in a related incident.
The U.S. is also offering a reward of up to $1 million for information leading to the arrest of four outstanding suspects believed to hiding out in Mexico. The names of the four suspects were revealed, and their pictures released, to the public. Police in the US and in Mexico are cooperating and under intense pressure to find them.

Eric Holder, Barack Obama?
Will any indictments be coming for the people who supplied the weapons to the drug cartels?
Not much info revealed.
Bean bags? This is not going to help Obama get elected.
This is going to kill Obama’s relection just as surely as it killed Terry.
A Wag the Dog effort...
What do you mean? Bean bags is a step up from caps! /s
The million dollars should go to the first person that can conclusively prove that bastard Holder (and, by extension, Obama) are culpable.
Nice try DOJ, but no sale.
I suppose H0lder is unindicted.
Whatever pinheads that ordered our agents to use beanbags should be tried, convicted and hanged for murder and stupidity.
The agents should be issued the latest military hardware and support to eliminate the trash in the desert. Thermo barbaric grenades, laser guided bombs, snipers and anything they need to crush the enemy.
zerobama, holder and others should be outed and shamed for their complicity in these crimes.
Bean bags? This is not going to help Obama get elected.
This is going to kill Obama’s relection just as surely as it killed Terry.
Bean bags didn’t say Agent Terry’s life...
Police: Bean bag rounds can save lives

I heard they may go to using biodegradable spud guns.
Well put.
They were Mexican Jumping Beanbags, of course.
If at first bean bags don’t work, they’re going to lob a stern letter next ......
