In all, 100 assault weapons acquired under Fast and Furious were transported 350 miles from Phoenix to El Paso, making that West Texas city a central hub for gun traffickers. Forty of the weapons made it across the border and into the arsenal of Jose Antonio Torres Marrufo, a feared cartel leader in Ciudad Juarez, according to federal court records and trace documents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

And this is a surprise?

Glad they recovered them before they were found at a deadly crime scene where a US citizen was murdered.

If more people in Washington know about this, I hope their heads will roll.

You of course mean "another US citizen" besides Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.

And the only ones in Washington who don't know about this have been cryogenic sleep for a few decades...
