Court documents released today reveal new details in the murder of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.
ABC15 and five other news organizations took legal action against the Department of Justice to make the sealed court documents public.
The records released Monday include sixty pages of paperwork including an indictment charging Manuel Osorio Arellanes with second degree murder in Terry's death.
Names of most other defendants are still being kept secret.
Federal investigators found assault weapons linked to the ATF’s controversial Fast and Furious case at the scene of Terry’s murder.
Fast and Furious is the case in which ATF agents in Phoenix admitted to knowingly allowing guns to get into the hands of criminals and onto the streets of Arizona. There are now hundreds of missing weapons connected to the case.
