More Fast and Furious — Did DEA Whistleblower Cele Castillo Call it?

NYC Radio Show Also Explores New Developments in the Alleged Ties Between US Law Enforcers and the Sinaloa “Cartel”

The Expert Witness Radio program, which airs on WBAI-FM [Pacifica Radio] in New York City during prime cabbie drive time — midnight to 1 am — once again takes a hard look at the ATF gun-running program Fast and Furious, with special attention to Narco News’ ongoing coverage of the scandal — in which thousands of high-powered handguns and assault rifles were allegedly smuggled across the US border into Mexico, and put into the hands of killers, all under the watch of agents with the US Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

This particular show focuses in on what former DEA agent and Iran/Contra-era whistleblower Cele Castillo knew about ATF gun-running corruption and how it may have cost him his freedom. Castillo is nearing the end of a three-year federal prison term on gun charges brought by the very same agency (ATF) that he accused of allowing its agents to help smuggle arms into Mexico.

The teaser from the Expert Witness Radio show:

Those who have been listening to us for any length of time have heard our broadcasts on Fast and Furious and the House of Death. What we increasingly run into is the fact that, no matter who’s in office, the same kind of boneheaded policies stay in place – that result in death and mayhem. Why?

Iran/Contra-Era Whistleblower Cele Castillo Alleged in 2008 that federal agents were helping to smuggle guns into Mexico.

Cele Castillo, a former DEA agent who blew the whistle on the CIA-backed arms-for-drugs trade used to prop up the 1980s Contra counter-insurgency in Nicaragua, is now sitting in a federal prison for what may well be another act of whistleblowing in this century.

Plus: The criminal case of accused Sinaloa drug organization leader Jesus Vicente Zambada Niebla is straying even further into the path of a cover-up under the guise of national security, if pleadings filed by his attorneys are to be believed.

Tonight, we delve into these subjects and more with [Narco News Correspondent] Bill Conroy.
