CBS News has learned that the family of ICE Special Agent Jaime Zapata has filed a claim for wrongful death against the Justice Dept. and other federal agencies. Zapata was gunned down by suspected drug cartel members in Mexico in Feb. 2011 with weapons later linked to an ATF case in the Texas area. Joining the claim is Zapata's surviving partner in the attack: Victor Avila.
In an interview last November, Zapata's family told CBS News they feel that U.S. law enforcement could have stopped the sale of a gun used to kill their son. CBS News obtained law enforcement records that show the gun that killed Zapata came from the U.S., and the suspects who allegedly trafficked it had been under law enforcement's watch for months in Dallas but weren't arrested.
In February, CBS News learned a second weapon used in the Zapata attack was also linked to an ongoing case under the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
The Justice Department has said ATF "was not aware of" the suspect's purchase of the gun that killed Zapata when it happened, and that answering further questions would jeopardize the investigation.

PRELIMINARY NEWS REPORTS REVEAL THAT THE WINDOW WAS OPENED AND ZAPATA WAS SHOT.
The other agent was shot in the leg twice from the passenger side.
Figure it out folks. This was a hit. The FBI witness’ deposition about the murder has been “erased” so that he (Zapata-Espinosa) will be set free, and he was set up by the Zeta’s anyway.
Someone needs to find out where Victor Avila is and get his deposition. The only person that would open a window after being pulled over by 2 SUVs with 10 armed men is him.
Is it just me or ARE THINGS BEGINNING TO SNOWBALL?
Prayers for this family who lost their loved one.
GOOD I am glad both families
are having their say!
This will be sticky wicket for zero and his POS att general!

I sincerely hope & pray it is. In fact I pray that a tsuenami of mammoth proportions or curruption & scandal & criminal charges, will engulf the RAT bastard commie pig 0dumb0, his corrupt crime partner Holder, Hillary, Geithner, Napalitano, Sebelius, and any other top echelon commie pigs who were appointed by 0dumb0.
Was Zapata on Obama’s “Kill List”?
It’s all coming unraveled. May the truth be revealed and justice not be denied these grieving families.
Sue Holder, Obama, and those PERSONALLY involved; NOT THE TAXPAYERS!
That’s right.
I am only asking this because it seems to be so important to the DOJ. Was Zapata a “white hispanic”?
From what I'm gathering, Obama invoked executive privilege to stop anyone from finding out that it's our OWN government that killed Zapata because he was getting too close to figuring out that F&F was an untraceable gun running scheme implemented for the purpose of getting assault weapons ultimately banned in the United States because these types of weapons in the hands of Americans pose the greatest threat to the government when the SHTF?
Interesting ...
...but every transaction over $10K has to be reported to the Feds.....
...sorry...these are the Feds....its just for the "little people"
He has been linked to corruption and scandal since he first got into the public eye in 2004, it’s just that the MSM has completely IGNORED it....
"And exec privilege was invoked for F and F.
Admission of involvement.
No statute of limitations for murder.
High crimes and misdemeanors anyone?"
Thanks for that. It was worth repeating so I did!

Sorry, I screwed that up.. Ignore my previous post!!!
You are very welcome.
The doors automatically unlocked when Zapata put it in park. It’s a “safety feature” of the vehicle that the gov overlooked when they bought these SUVs for gov employees. Link in post #12.
