Thread: Agent Terry: Who was Given priority?

Agents in Nogales are talking, off the record, about what really happened in Peck Canyon the night of the firefight between armed Mexican cartel members and the BORTAC team. The brass in Nogales, Tucson, and DC is very worried about the facts getting out to the public and have issued a gag order on all agents. They are threatening agents that they will be fired if they are caught talking about the facts of Terry's murder. A lot of tips are coming in from agents now through back-channels. They want the truth about Terry's murder to be known.

Bottom line: A series of bad BP/DHS procedures, policies, and protocol, all designed to protect Mexican criminals inside the U.S., most likely resulted in the needless death of Agent Brian Terry on the night of Dec. 14, 2010.

Tip from Thursday night (12/23) from trusted senior source inside USBP. We need to get this confirmed ASAP! Congress and the media, where are you??

I can't relate details for the safety of some agents and supervisors. However the word is that when Terry and the illegal alien bandit were both wounded, the BORSTAR helo came down on the scene and they opted to airlift the alien first to the hospital. Terry was loaded onto a vehicle and driven out to where another helo was parked, thereby the alien was given first priority for medical service.

At this point we can't confirm this but it sounds like it is coming from people who know.

I am hoping Brian Terry did not die in vain. We need to keep the heat on through the holidays and until the new Congress is installed and then push with all our might for hearings.

Remember, the twice deported Mexican National who was wounded is a confirmed drug cartel member who was also convicted of assaulting a Phoenix police officer several years ago. He was wounded in the foot. Agent Terry reportedly waited many minutes before being flown out. I have heard it was up to a half hour before they could fly him out. He reportedly died enroute to the hospital.

Ah God, I hope this isn't true. I was wounded to the core to read all of the articles written so far, if this is true we truly have our work cut out for us!

i hope to God its not true, and if it is, we the american people need to know why. and who decided who gets the first ride out?!?!

We should send this to the new Congress . This Is a complete and total outrage If this really happened. People should lose their job If this happened and were Involved In this decision...

Hope this is not true also but sending this to my congressman.

We’ve had plenty of trouble in the past getting information about criminal incidents involving the Border Patrol. For example, in one recent case involving an agent who pleaded guilty to assaulting an illegal immigrant at the Nogales Station, we couldn’t even get the Border Patrol to tell us if the agent had been fired. But even considering our past experience, the degree to which federal authorities are withholding details on last week’s killing of Agent Brian Terry is head-scratching.

First, it appears to be a straightforward murder case, with the Border Patrol agent the undisputed victim. Terry and his team went looking for some bad guys, they found them, and Terry was shot and killed in the ensuing gun battle. Unlike the incident last month in which an agent shot an illegal immigrant in the stomach at Walker Canyon after the man allegedly brandished a rock, there doesn’t appear to be any “he said/she saidâ€
