Weapons linked to ATF's controversial "Fast and Furious" operation have been tied to at least eight violent crimes in Mexico including three murders, four kidnappings and an attempted homicide.
According to a letter from U.S. Assistant Attorney General Ronald Weich to Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA) and Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa), the disclosed incidents may be only a partial list of violent crimes linked to Fast and Furious weapons because "ATF has not conducted a comprehensive independent investigation."
When added to the guns found at the murder scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry in the U.S., the newly-revealed murders in Mexico bring the total number of deaths linked to Fast and Furious to four.

You mean deaths in the USA.
I guess CBS doesn’t care about the THOUSANDS of brown Mexicans murdered using these guns.
I will REMEMBER that.
Is the dam finally breaking on Obama and all his crooked little plots? CBS was the first station to break this story and now they appear to be getting interested in it again.
ABC ran the Solyndra/White House story at the top of their evening news and I was stunned at how bad the story made the Administration look. If the two networks start competing by trying to run negative stories, it could get pretty interesting.
The day NBC jumps in, we’ll know it’s all over for Bambi!
Hussein and holder need to be tried for murder—or are they above the law on that too?
I think CBS just covers gunwalker on CBS.com. Not on TV... but I could be wrong about that.
You have to give the MSM credit, they’ve really done an excellent job keeping a lid on this thing. How many more damning revelations like this one until they cannot contain it any longer?
The ny slimes had a review of the Palin bashing book and they savaged the writer and his lies... stinging rebuke... weird times. Maybe even the leftardians are growing weary of him?
LLS
Please properly fill out all the fields when posting, especially to Breaking News.
I was amazed the MSM reports on this scandal at all, but even now the average American STILL knows more about Joe The Plumber than he knows about Fast & Furious.
It’s amazing.
When is Holder going to be charged with murder?
Bad week for Obama. Time for another vacation?
The MSM seems to be turning on Zero. I just saw ABC’s Brian Ross on BOR give an honest report on the Solyndra scandal. He was stunned to learn of the restructure of the loan that put taxpayers behind investors that donated big to Obama. BOR was taking up Obama’s side more so than Ross.
bump n ping
I hope someone in the government has the balls to look into this crap and it should be named “Fast and Furious Legal Action”. It should be done as fast as possible. Don’t give them time to regroup. Hit them hard and fast.
Dubya! Look at the times on our posts! LOL

3 more murders pinned to the zero.
LOL. If only the MSM would report in the manner we post LOL
Ping!
