Death Records Now

Five illegal immigrants armed with at least two AK-47 semi-automatic assault rifles were hunting for U.S. Border Patrol agents near a desert watering hole known as Mesquite Seep just north of the Arizona-Mexico border when a firefight erupted and one U.S. agent was killed, records show.

A now-sealed federal grand jury indictmentin the death of Border Patrol agent Brian A. Terrysays the Mexican nationals were “patrolling” the rugged desert area of Peck Canyon at about 11:15 p.m. on Dec. 14 with the intent to “intentionally and forcibly assault” Border Patrol agents.

At least two of the Mexicans carried their assault rifles “at the ready position,” one of several details about the attack showing that Mexican smugglers are becoming more aggressive on the U.S. side of the border.

According to the indictment, the Mexicans were “patrolling the area in single-file formation” a dozen miles northwest of the border town of Nogales and — in the darkness of the Arizona night — opened fire on four Border Patrol agents after the agents identified themselves in Spanish as police officers.

Two AK-47 assault rifles found at the scene came from the failed Fast and Furious operation.

Using thermal binoculars, one of the agents determined that at least two of the Mexicans were carrying rifles, but according to an affidavit in the case by FBI agent Scott Hunter, when the Mexicans did not drop their weapons as ordered, two agents used their shotguns to fire “less than lethal” beanbags at them.

At least one of the Mexicans opened fire and, according to the affidavit, Terry, a 40-year-old former U.S. Marine, was shot in the back. A Border Patrol shooting-incident report said that Terry called out, “I’m hit,” and then fell to the ground, a bullet having pierced his aorta. “I can’t feel my legs,” Terry told one of the agents who cradled him. “I think I’m paralyzed.”

Bleeding profusely, he died at the scene.

After the initial shots, two agents returned fire, hitting Manuel Osorio-Arellanes, 33, in the abdomen and leg. The others fled. The FBI affidavit said Osorio-Arellanes admitted during an interview that all five of the Mexicans were armed.

Peck Canyon is a notorious drug-smuggling corridor.

Osorio-Arellanes initially was charged with illegal entry, but that case was dismissed when the indictment was handed up. It named Osorio-Arellanes on a charge of second-degree murder, but did not identify him as the likely shooter, saying only that Osorio-Arellanes and others whose names were blacked out “did unlawfully kill with malice aforethought United States Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry while Agent Terry was engaged in … his official duties.”

The indictment also noted that Osorio-Arellanes had been convicted in Phoenix in 2006 of felony aggravated assault, had been detained twice in 2010 as an illegal immigrant, and had been returned to Mexico repeatedly.

Bill Brooks, U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s acting southwest border field branch chief, referred inquiries to the FBI, which is conducting the investigation. The FBI declined to comment.

The case against Osorio-Arellanes and others involved in the shooting has since been sealed, meaning that neither the public nor the media has access to any evidence, filings, rulings or arguments.

This is the reason we need military on the border.You know the sad fact is that any one of the thousands of illegals that came here today could be a killer just like that and our govt doesn’t protect us in any way from them.

The Mexican government reported a rise in incidents in which U.S. immigration authorities harmed Mexican migrants. Agents hurt or killed five Mexicans in 2008, 12 in 2009 and 17 this year, according to data from the Mexican Foreign Ministry.

In a statement, the FBI said the El Paso incident began around 6:30 p.m. Monday. A U.S. Border Patrol agent arrived to help colleagues responding to a report of suspected illegal immigrants being smuggled into the USA.

The statement says the agent detained one of the suspects while others ran to the Mexican side of the border and threw rocks at the agent.

"This agent … gave verbal commands to the remaining subjects to stop and retreat," the statement said. "However, the subjects surrounded the agent and continued to throw rocks at him. The agent then fired his service weapon several times, striking one subject who later died."

The Mexican Foreign Ministry said in a statement Thursday that the use of firearms to "repel attacks with stones represents a disproportionate use of force."

T.J. Bonner, president of the National Border Patrol Council, the union representing about 17,000 agents and support staffers, said frequent rock attacks have the "capacity to inflict serious damage, if not death." He said the agent, a seven-year veteran, appears to have acted properly.

Bonner said U.S. records show the Mexican boy had been arrested six times on charges related to human smuggling or illegal entry.

In Mexico, some citizens were outraged. "They’re acting in a very aggressive way against Mexicans and even their own Hispanics," Alejandro López, 27, said Thursday in Mexico City. "The (Border Patrol) is going to do whatever they can to excuse it, but in the end, he was just a kid, and he didn’t deserve to die."

according to the State Department: 79 U.S. citizens were killed last year in Mexico, up from 35 in 2007. In Juarez, just across the Rio Grande from El Paso, Texas, 23 Americans were killed in 2009, compared with two in 2007.
Obama no Comment.ZzZzZzZzZz

I can understand their frustration and ignorance of the real issue behind this but I am getting tired of their stupidity. I am so tired of the double standards they impose. Mexicans are aggressive with Central American migrants yet they don’t get called out for it. It was unfortunate for that boy to lose his life but he was no saint. As you mentioned, he was a human trafficker and had been arrested numerous times. His mother even said he was a good kid. HAHAHA or should it be JAJAJA

Since 5000 b.c. the Cannabis plant has existed. That means that Cannabis has lived for 7009 years in the ever changing world of new mountains, streams, and caves made by our God. Man only started the Industrial Revolution, to make a transition from farms to cities, in the last 400 or so years.
In 1932, when Yellow Journalism came around to taint the Cannabis record, we didn’t stop for a second to ask ourselves what we were listening to, or to even ask why we were to follow what was being said. Cannabis went from a plant to a drug they called "Marih/juana," which in Mexico and all around the world (so stated by the Journalists mentioned earlier) caused a string of Murderous, Insane, and Deadly crimes committed by Mexicans and African Americans, to name a few of the groups demeaned by the Yellow Journalists.

Ever since 1932, 75 years ago, people have been mislead by the founders of the Yellow Journalists, which to identify them would be considered "Treason" and i’d be put to death, and no one has tried to stop the lies and put a truth to the Cannabis name. As people of a land mass where train riders from the past put Buffalo into extinction and buildings in place of lush forests, we haven’t even tried to find out what the purpose of the Cannabis plant is as much as we’ve enjoyed being as racist as possible to the users of Cannabis as soon as they arise from their hiding places, where they seek shelter from being put down by naysayers who don’t even know who their creator is.

My main concern about being a Cannabis user is whether the Government really endorses the universal bullying of "Stoners," the affectionate nickname for those who relate to my subject of choice. My question pertains to whether or not we as humans, in a world where drug lords, drug abusers, and drug manufacturers are supposed to be the real enemies, care for the sake of those who know what is right and wrong. Do we want to stop the drug game and terminate all of the Pills, Powders, and Chemicals of the world, or are we more concerned about whether or not a dedicated, hard-working, busting-his-ass-every-day-to-earn-a-meal Stoner passes a piss test for his job to earn a paycheck?

There is a difference between hard drugs, like Heroine, Meth, Cocaine, and all of the rest of those thing, and Cannabis. Cannabis requires the Earth, water, 12 hours of sunlight, 12 hours of night light, and love, just like every other plant we walk by everyday and look down on because it can’t move from it’s spot in the dirt.

I’m not going to sit by for the rest of my life just to watch as the world gets to say what it thinks about Cannabis when the world is too full of bad people for me to feel comfortable listening to every day. I may not be God, but I know for a fact that He wouldn’t make something with his own hands just so He could sit back and watch his kids suffer. I know He made Cannabis so whenever we do suffer, we can turn to something that will NEVER cause a life-threatening reaction. God NEVER makes something He hasn’t made plans for, so how can we say what Cannabis does when those who define it can only be negative about it’s appearance?

can you shorten the question slightly?…. im not quite sure what you are looking for.. except the legalization of weed.. (from the context of you first and last paragrahs..)

(CNN) – The deportations of thousands of Mexicans who have served time in U.S. jails into Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, are adding a deadly ingredient into an already volatile state of security, Juarez Mayor Jose Reyes Ferriz told CNN.

A turf battle between rival drug cartels, and between authorities and cartels, have made Juarez one of the world’s most dangerous cities. There were 305 drug-related killings in August, making it the deadliest month yet, according to the mayor’s office.

Most of the recent violence has been committed by young street-level drug dealers who work for the Sinaloa or Juarez cartels, Reyes Ferriz said.

Adding tens of thousands of deportees from the United States, some with criminal records, worsens the situation, the mayor said.

In the past 45 days, 10 percent of those killed in Juarez had been deported from the United States in the past two years, Reyes Ferriz said.

"We don’t have the statistics to know if they were criminals from the United States or not," he told CNN’s Rick Sanchez this week. "We know they were deported from the U.S. Most of them come from U.S. jails. They end up in the city of Juarez, and that’s a problem generated for us, but also for the United States."

Most deportees are simply Mexicans who crossed the border illegally, but some hardened criminals get involved with the gangs, which have networks in the United States, Reyes Ferriz said.

But according to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the U.S. agency that oversees deportations, the number of criminal deportees entering Juarez from El Paso, Texas, is not high.

"El Paso had the fewest removals among the other border areas" in fiscal 2008, ICE spokeswoman Leticia Zamarripa said.

About 85,400 "criminal aliens" were deported from the United States to their homelands in 2008, according to ICE.

Of those deported through El Paso, about 6,800 were criminal aliens, Zamarripa said. Not all were Mexican, so not all left the United States by crossing into Juarez, she added.

By comparison, 11,400 criminal aliens were processed through San Antonio, Texas, via the nearby Laredo international bridges, and 11,000 criminal aliens were deported through San Diego, California.

The location of the deportation proceedings "depends on bed space and operational availability," Zamarripa said.

Reyes Ferriz wants deportees to be repatriated to the interior of Mexico instead of his city.

The Department of Homeland Security is running such a program, involving deportees from Phoenix, Arizona. The deportation flights from Arizona to Mexico are happening because it is a high-traffic area for illegal immigrants, and because that’s where the government of Mexico agreed to the program.

In a recent conversation, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said the United States would work to give Juarez more details about who is being dropped off on its doorstep, Reyes Ferriz said.

The 2009 death toll in Juarez was 1,421 as of Monday, the mayor’s office said, on pace to beat last year’s 1,600 killings.

According to report released last week by a Mexican watchdog group, Juarez, population 1.5 million, was the homicide capital of the world. It had an estimated rate of 130 killings per 100,000 people.

By comparison, the homicide rate in New Orleans – by far the deadliest city in the United States in 2008 – was 64 homicides per 100,000 residents, based on preliminary FBI figures

That’s why the US needs to get rid of all these criminal aliens and illegal aliens. They’re lawbreakers! And they keep proving they are lawbreakers again and again wherever they are. They kill each other on the streets of the US, in jails, and on the streets of Mexico, etc.

The US has gone to a great deal of expense to remove many illegal aliens to the interior, per a deal with Mexico whereby US pays ALL of the costs, and Mexico limits numbers and destinations. Actually, in deportation, the US’s only obligation is to return them to any border crossing or airport for entry into their country, and has no further responsibility or liability for those who violate US immigration and/or other laws.

Mexico is simply playing "poor, poor pitiful me" games to hijack the pockets of the American taxpayer again (and again and again). Let them deal with their own bloody criminals. It is their problem and should be their problem since it is their citizens in their country which are violating their laws.

BTW, the murder rate in New Orleans is mostly due to the huge influx of illegal aliens who ran to N.O. post-Katrina in order to collect FEMA and other aid funds. Leeches, cons, criminals flooded in, and FEMA, N.O., et al, let them. Now they pay the price for not stopping these criminals years ago.
