Stonewalling On 'Fast And Furious' Challenged
Feds demand another extended delay in deadline to produce information
WND
A team of top legal experts representing the Gun Owners Foundation in its fight for information about the Obama administration’s Fast and Furious gun-running scandal is challenging the federal government’s demand for a virtually unlimited delay in the case.
Attorneys William J. Olson and John S. Miles of the Law and Freedom organization have filed in the U.S. District Court in Washington a memo opposing the request by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives for an indefinite suspension of its obligation to release public information.
The scandal is of such importance the issue needs to be resolved, according to the new pleading.
“This is not simply a case about an overworked federal agency that is facing an onslaught of FOIA cases and needs additional time to process the plaintiff’s request,” the pleading says.
“Instead, this case involves an agency that authorized firearms to be illegally purchased in the United States, and transferred into the hands of Mexican drug cartels in an ill-fated program known as ‘Fast and Furious.’ Fast and Furious allegedly was instituted by ATF as part of an effort to trace the flow of illegal firearms, but this could not be the true reason, because the firearms were not traced after ATF agents assisted in their illegal purchase and smuggling,” the brief says.
“Rather, Fast and Furious is widely viewed as part of ATF’s effort to generate support for federal gun controls.”
The complaint explains that the strategy unraveled when a U.S. Border Patrol agent was killed by a bullet fired from one of the weapons that the government allowed to be delivered to the criminal drug rings.
And that, the brief explains, may shed light on why the ATF already has delayed for two years and wants still further unspecified delays.
