You may remember George Gillett. He was the #2 guy for the Phoenix field division during Fast & Furious, and he was castigated by Issa for "failure to ensure proper supervision."
Back around Thanksgiving, Mexican beauty queen
Maria Susana Flores Gamez and five others were killed in Sinaola. Guns from Fast & Furious were found at the scene.
Interestingly enough, one of those was an FN FiveSeven pistol, which was
traced directly back to Mr. Gillett. Now, by "directly," I mean
directly.

Gillett purchased the weapon at Legendary Arms, a Phoenix gun store. On the federal form 4473 used to buy the gun, Gillett used the ATF office address, 201 East Washington, and said "Apt 940." On subsequent purchase, Gillett used a commercial address, that of a strip mall.

Yep, he lied on the form. What's more, he claims he later sold the gun privately to someone over the internet. Naturally, neither Gillett or the ATF has any comment on the matter.
