"When U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was murdered in December of 2010 while investigating illegal gun and drug smuggling that turned out to be part of the Obama Administration scandal known as Fast and Furious, all records concerning the murder were sealed by the courts.
But in a bombshell revelation made by author and reporter Katie Pavlich on C-SPAN2's Book TV series Sunday evening, Pavlich told National Journal reporter Major Garrett that all of the evidence suggests that the reason the records are sealed is to prevent the public from finding out highly embarrassing information about the Obama Administration.

That information is that Agent Terry was more than likely murdered by paid FBI informants working with Mexican drug cartels and that the gun they used to kill him was a Fast and Furious weapon the Obama Administration had deliberately placed in their hands. - (bold emphasis added)
Pavlich's new book titled, "Fast and Furious: Barack Obama's Bloodiest Scandal and Its Shameless Cover-Up," contains information gleaned from extensive research during which dozens of interviews were conducted with ATF whistleblowers and other sources inside the government who possess insider knowledge of the Fast and Furious scandal.
Very little information has been provided to the press or to the public concerning evidence retrieved at the crime scene, except for the fact that at least two guns were recovered. But government whistleblowers working for the ATF, ICE, and the FBI have reported that a third gun was recovered at the scene but was never sent to the forensics lab for analysis.
That gun somehow mysteriously disappeared.
The agents who saw the gun and who are familiar with the Fast and Furious operation are adamant that it was part of the illegal scheme to send U.S. guns to Mexican drug cartels.
A secretly taped conversation between an ATF agent and a gun dealer, which was submitted into evidence and broadcast on CBS News, shows that there was a third gun despite vehement denials early on by administration officials.
Thus, overwhelming factual evidence already has been established that the third gun was present at the scene and removed, thus preventing it from being analyzed by forensics, and that the Mexican criminals that ATF agents had in their sights for gun and drug trafficking turned out to be paid FBI informants.
The information provided by Pavlich in her book confirms the claims made previously by ATF informants, which were relayed by this reporter and others over the past 18 months. Further, Pavlich is convinced that the reason the evidence from Brain Terry's murder is tightly sealed from public view is that the Obama Administration does not want the public to know that its Fast and Furious operation led directly to Agent Terry's death."
