I read the following:
"The panel affirmed four defendants’ convictions and
sentences for conspiracy to possess cocaine with intent to
distribute and use of a firearm in furtherance of a drug
trafficking offense, arising out of a reverse sting operation in
which an ATF undercover agent recruited the defendants to
carry out an armed robbery . . ."
My first thought was "Isn't anyone prosecuting the ATF agent for initiating and conspiring to commit armed robbery?"
