Uh-Oh: ATF Head Melson <i>Secretly Testifies</i>, Without Notice to ATF or Department of Justice

Contrary to the Justice Department's denials, according to Melson, ATF agents specifically witnessed transfers of weapons from straw purchasers to third parties without taking any further action. Melson claimed that it was not until the public disclosure of the operation that he personally reviewed the "hundreds of documents" related to the case. He said he became "sick to his stomach" when he learned the full story. Very interesting is the letter to Holder written by Grassley and Issa, accusing the DoJ of obstruction.
