Fast & Furious: Another BCP Agent Killed in New Mexico

It is not known yet whether the death of Border Patrol Agent Nicholas Ivie, killed in a shootout near Naco, is another death attributable to F&F guns.  Ivie's partner was also wounded.  A third agent was not injured.  There is no indication about recovered guns or brass.

Two days ago Univision aired a report on F&F in which they asked many tough questions about F&F and its links to the White House.  They also asked about similar operations conducted out of Texas and Florida Operation Castaway).  The report discussed at length the deaths and damage done to Mexican citizens as a result of F&F guns getting into Mexico.  They focused on the deaths of 16 teenagers which a Mexican Army report says involved F&F guns.   These broader questions and concerns were not included in the ATF Inspector General's report released two weeks ago.
