From PJM: ...Sources now tell PJ Media that neither version of events is accurate: the rip crew was not waiting for a chance encounter with other illegals, nor did the members intend to engage American law enforcement agents.
The rip crew was in Peck Canyon that evening with the intention of stealing money and drugs from a specific shipment of which they had prior knowledge.
Sources claim the Department of Justice has been trying for almost a year to hide the key information — how the rip crew knew the shipment was coming through that night.
Criminal informants (CIs) are a common tool of law enforcement agencies. When agencies apprehend criminals, agencies often reduce or drop charges in exchange for information leading to the arrests of higher-ranking criminals. Earlier this year, reports claimed that Operation Fast and Furious weapons smuggled over the border were actually chosen by an FBI informant, and paid for with money provided by the federal government.
The rip crew knew to be in Peck Canyon that December evening because a CI working for the FBI found out about a smuggling run — from the FBI.
It is not clear if the information was provided intentionally, but a possible motivation for the FBI to provide the information is known to exist: the CI had previously lost a shipment of drugs, and wanted to regain the trust of the cartel with an offering of drugs or money. The other possibility is that the FBI mistakenly allowed the CI to discover the information.
The CI used this information to organize an ambush of the drug convoy. A source tells PJM that the FBI knew from wiretaps that the CI was using their information to set up an ambush.
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) — through its own CIs and communications intercepts — was also aware of the planned assault.
Neither the DEA nor FBI warned Border Patrol about the expected criminal activity.

So, now you have the DEA and FBI knowing an attack was planned on the border and they never let the Border Patrol know about the attack and now Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry is dead.
A police officer is dead because of the actions of Eric Holder and his flunkies and no one is held accountable. The whistle blowers are harassed and the supervisors get promotions.
Eric Holder is an embarrassment and a criminal and a special prosecutor should be named to investigate his actions and others.
And the Democrats, including our own Shelly Berkley and Crybaby Reid ought to be calling for an investigation but instead they protect Holder and his lackeys. If this would have been a GOP attorney general, they would be demanding justice for Agent Terry and rightfully so, but they don't in fear of hurting Obama during an election. How shameful is that?
So, maybe Rep. Joe Heck and Sen. Dean Heller will do the job that Reid and Berkley will not do.
