last of seven defendants charged in the 2010 fatal shooting of a U.S. Border Patrol agent in a case that exposed a botched federal gun operation known as “Fast and Furious” has been extradited to Arizona to stand trial.
Federal prosecutors announced Tuesday that Jesus Rosario Favela-Astorga, who was arrested in Mexico in October 2017, was extradited last Friday.
Court documents show a plea of not guilty was entered on Favela-Astorga’s behalf at his arraignment Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Tucson and a March 17 trial date has been set.
