Eric Holder's Top Deputy Resigns Amid Revelation F&F Guns Used in Phoenix Crime |
2014-10-18 |
![]() Documents released by conservative government watchdog group Judicial Watch—and put forward by Senate Judiciary Committee ranking member Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) and House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform chairman Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA)—show that an assault rifle purchased as part of Fast and Furious was used in a Phoenix-area crime in July 2013 that left two people wounded. Part of a police report shows the rifle’s serial number, 1977DX1654. Judicial Watch obtained the documents from a lawsuit it filed against the city of Phoenix, Judicial Watch v. City of Phoenix, to get officials to release the documents. Judicial Watch had filed an Aug. 5, 2014, public records request with the city, which it ignored, forcing Judicial Watch to file the lawsuit on Oct. 2. Rats leaping from a sinking ship. |

#1 In addition to Cole’s resignation, Holder recently announced he plans to resign soon, as well—something that came right after a federal judge ordered the DOJ to provide, by Oct. 22, a “Vaughan Index,” or a list of documents President Obama is hiding under executive privilege, descriptions of them, and the reasons the administration thinks they are privilege-worthy, pursuant to another Judicial Watch lawsuit. |
