Latinos demand investigation in death of border agent Brian Terry

Latino groups are going to demonstrate this weekend in Phoenix at Paradise Valley State Park. Members of civil rights group Nuestros Reconquistos believe that people have been lied to about the death of border agent Brian Terry, who was supposedly killed by Mexican drug cartel members.

“The misinformation about Brian Terry’s death is mind boggling. It was just a lie to get people all riled up about illegal immigration,” claims Nuestros Reconquistos President Manuel Longoria. “There is other information going around saying that Terry was accidentally killed by another U.S. border agent. The mainstream media is refusing to report this!”

There has been a lot of scandal surrounding Terry’s death. It was recently revealed that he was killed with weapons donated by the United States. Cecilia Maldonado, the President of Chicanos Unidos Arizona, calls the situation a tragedy.
