#1 This commenter nailed it, and I suspect a similar program was undertaken in Benghazi. Different end game, same gun-running template:

UGottabeonsomething says: It's obvious this whole episode is being covered up for political reasons. The truth of it will come eventually but I believe that the people responsible are being protected. Holder was the front man, there was pressure on him to make this happen and it blew up in their face. We were never suppose to find out that the BATF allowed these guns to go through. It was done to make the common gun owner look like the bad guy and justify weapons bans.

#2 No American Presidential pardon effects Mexican law. The one bright spot that some day an extradition request will be honored.

#3 Two were purchased with DOJ knowledge and permission by Fast and Furious suspect Uriel Patino in May and July of 2010. Sean Steward, who was convicted on gun charges in July 2012, purchased a third.
