Holder: Fast and Furious errors won’t be repeated - The Pueblo Chieftain: Local: "WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday acknowledged serious mistakes in an arms-trafficking probe that allowed AK-47s and other weapons to leak into the black market, but he insisted the Justice Department was taking steps to ensure that never happens again.
Under pointed questioning by Republicans, Holder also expressed regret that the Justice Department had denied allegations of ‘‘gun-walking’’ in a letter to Iowa Sen. Charles Grassley sent earlier this year.
‘‘Unfortunately, we will feel its effects for years to come as guns that were lost during this operation continue to show up at crime scenes both here and in Mexico,’’ Holder told the Senate Judiciary Committee of the investigation, known as Operation Fast and Furious. "
