Border agent's parents lash out against Eric Holder

The parents of slain Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry are lashing out against Attorney General Eric Holder and say they hold top Justice Department officials responsible for their son's death.

In separate interviews with Fox News, Josephine and Kent Terry blamed Holder and his top aides for their son's death near the U.S.-Mexico border nearly a year ago.

Terry was killed by a weapon that was allowed to cross into Mexico as part of the ATF-run Operation Fast and Furious. Authorities allowed thousands of firearms to cross the border as part of an effort to trace the route of weapons from the USA to drug cartels south of the border. The secret operation became publicly known when an ATF agent spoke out about the program after Terry's slaying.

The ire of the Terry family appeared to be exacerbated by Holder's testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday. Holder demurred at the opportunity to apologize to the family and instead expressed "regret" about the operation. The next day, however, Holder wrote a letter to the family in which he said he was "sorry for the tragic loss," Politico reported.

The apology apparently didn't soothe hurt feelings.

"I think they are liars, and I would tell them that," Kent Terry said. "What would I say to Eric Holder? They would not be nice words."

In a separate interview, Josephine Terry said, "If they never let the guns walk, maybe Brian would not have been out that day. I just can't believe our own government came up with a program like this that (let) innocent people get killed."

The Terrys outrage comes as former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin calls for Holder's resignation.

Josephine Terry charged that Dennis Burke, Arizona's top federal prosecutor, told her in March that the whistle-blowers' claims were false — despite having access to documents showing that the two weapons found near her son's body were tied to Operation Fast and Furious.

"Dennis Burke came up to my house and he said, 'No, none of them guns killed Brian. None of them,'" she said.
