Was ICE Agent Zapata Killed With a Gun Walker Weapon?by John Hayward, Posted 07/18/2011 ET, Updated 07/18/2011 ET So far, there has been one confirmed American victim of the Gun Walker project, in which the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives deliberately “walked” American guns across the border into Mexico. In addition to over a hundred and fifty Mexicans, U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed with a Gun Walker weapon. Questions linger about a possible second American victim, immigration agent Jaime Zapata, who was murdered by a Mexican drug cartel on the Pan-American Highway last February. Zapata’s partner, ICE agent Victor Avila, was also wounded in the attack. Zapata’s family wants to know if the gun that killed him came from the ATF. Roughly 200 Gun Walker weapons have turned up at Mexican crime scenes, according to an article in the L.A. Times. The family has been unable to get answers from the FBI or Homeland Security, but now House Oversight chairman Darrell Issa (R-CA) is investigating Zapata’s death and its possible links to the Gun Walker project.... www.humanevents.com/article.php?print=yes&id=44942
