One of the captured illegal aliens who was apprehended during a firefight that claimed the life of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, was also shot, and has a rap sheet with a conviction for the assault of a police officer.
“The Border Patrol said that Manuel Arianes, a.k.a. Manuel Arellanes Osorio, was wounded in the gunfight. Arianes, 34, and a Mexican national, was convicted in Maricopa County Superior Court in 2006 for aggravated assault on a police officer, and had been deported to Mexico twice, according to sources familiar with his case,” Arizona’s The Republic reported.
Other border activists are telling reporters that while this event is tragic, until border security is seriously addressed the mayhem will continue.
“The fact that a twice deported dangerous Mexican criminal alien was able to violate our borders once again and participate in a deadly ambush on U.S. Border agents highlights just how unsecured our southern border really is, especially in the Tucson Sector in Arizona. It is long overdue to deploy American troops to that region to quell the foreign violence that occurs regularly now deep inside our borders,” says Jeff Schwilk leader of the San Diego Minutemen.
In response to the latest BP murder, Department of Homeland Security Secretary and former Arizona governor, Janet Napolitano is expected to tour the border region where Terry was murdered.
While this visit may reassure Washington D.C. insiders, Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu says he is tired of the political correctness response and lack of action from DHS.
“We’ve heard nothing but the border is more secure than ever and unprecedented resources (have been allocated). Enough of this nonsense and political speak, we’ve got to secure the border once and for all,” Babeu said.
Communications between law enforcement leaders in Arizona has been tense in the past and most admit there is no communication with DHS. “She (Napolitano) won’t even speak to me because we have a difference of opinion,” Babeu finished.
These bandits are the lowest of the low criminals and continue to prey on an illegal industry that continues to operate without impunity. Until the 2,000-mile porous U.S. border is secured, law enforcement and residents will continue to be in danger.
Border Patrol Agent Terry died shortly after he was shot in a remote and rugged area near Rio Rico, just north of Nogales. There is no information about the other three suspects being held for this incident. Check back for updates about this story.

Lets just have the united states invade mexico and "Clean house" and get rid of these Zeta's MF's ....we are highly trained in doing that
Political correctness got Agent Brian Terry killed. From now on shoot all dangerous illegal aliens with lead, not rubber bullets.
The Department of Homeland Security....a joke. Start up a posse like Sheriff Joe has and just start shooting every illegal that comes across that border. The federal government doesn't have the huevos, nothing will change.
We actually patrol the areas in Maricopa County we're responsible for as Posse Members, and have been trained to deal with both non violent and violent offenders along with the deputies. Too bad some agencies regard the MCSO Posse as Wannabe's or other non-productive names-most of us are retired Military or retired LEO ourselves and are much more skilled manhunters than the jokes currently working for DHS under "Nappy" jan and her rainbow people. I know i just embarassed Phx PD by outshooting one of thier detectives last weekend with all 3 firearms-how's That for a Wannabe? Former US Army Sniper.
Janet Napolitano, Holder, Obummer, and more, have blood on their hands, 10 70 was the perfect beginning, NOW I am more pissed,
( schedule for tomorrow, I will buy my first hand gun, )
I really feel bad for this infortunate fighter against idiocracy from this Country, specially for his familly, this fighter was a veteran and was more secure at War than his home town, I am very angry :( !
Very good catch Ms. Dvorak! Combined with reports that Terry was armed with just rubber bullets it paints a sad picture. Our own law enforcement are betrayed and killed by federal government agencies.
