The final suspect has been sentenced to prison in the murder of USBP agent Brian Terry near Nogales. The seventh and final defendant has been sentenced for the 2010 fatal shooting, a case that exposed a botched federal gun operation known as “Fast and Furious.” Jesus Rosario Favela-Astorga was given a 50-year prison term Wednesday in a Tucson court, federal prosecutors said. Favela-Astorga, 41, was arrested by Mexican authorities in October 2017 on a provisional warrant. He was extradited to the U.S. in January 2020 and pleaded guilty in the case in April of this year.
