What the hell is going on with the feds these days?

[AngelsLongBall]

Apparently you shoot someone after they start stabbing you.

It all went downhill after Johnny Utah quit.

How gnar do you have to be to attack Feds (allegedly) while being questioned?

 

Answer - pretty gnar

[Glen]

I hope Alex Jones has a theory on this.

[Lifetime]

What should the Feds have done? 

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Well yeah, typically when someone is coming after a cop with a knife, they're gonna get shot.

[AngelsLongBall]

Who brings a knife to a gun fight?

 

Since I've never been brought in for questioning, do they not pat the guy before taking him in to a room, knowing that they're dealing with a sensitive topic (Boston bombings and/or unsolved triple homicide)?

I just posted his latest idiocy in the tornado thread.

It looks like he was being questioned at his residence not at the fbi facility 

[Angel Oracle]

The mistake he made was in not carrying around a real knife.   Should have consulted with Mick Dundee.

[mtangelsfan]

That's the feds' story and they are sticking to it.

 

Amazing that he "admitted" to a slaying from two years ago during the interview in which he was killed.

I'm a little skeptical of this as well.

Two guys are being interviewed by the FBI. One guy is allowed to leave after which the other guy admits to murder and then attacks the agents with a knife? It doesn't seem very logical.

you don't sound cynical enough. i'll hope you'll work on it some over the summer.

[mtangelsfan]

You're right, the feds haven't given us any reasons to be cynical.  

[Vegas Halo Fan]

This is my chief question. How do they bring this guy in for questioning without a full body search?

[arch stanton]

How can 5 trained professional law enforcement officers be expected to handle any situation without using deadly force? Especially if they're questioning someone with a funny name.

[mtangelsfan]

you don't sound cynical enough. i'll hope you'll work on it some over the summer.

 

Uh oh, now it looks like the suspect was unarmed.  Awesome. 

[AngelsLongBall]

I read in one article (I think LA Times) something like, "Law enforcement officials have quietly walked-back versions of the event"  Yeah, I'd say going from "officer sustained injuries due to suspect pulling a knife after confessing to triple murder resulting in use of deadly force" to "office sustained scrapes, suspect was unarmed but may have lunged for a samurai sword in the room after the other law enforcement left the room and no confession was made but deadly force was still necessary" is walking back...

[Futch Winkleman]

"The FBI takes very seriously any shooting incidents involving our agents and as such we have an effective, time-tested process for addressing them internally. The review process is thorough and objective and conducted as expeditiously as possible under the circumstances."

Sweet!  A self-investigation. 

[Lhalo]

Maybe the Bakersfield police can help in the investigation.

[Futch Winkleman]

Maybe the Bakersfield police can help in the investigation.

 

LAPD can assist too, as evidenced by their swift action against the blue truck assassins.

[mtangelsfan]

So they totally lied at first and now they are going backwards.  Why should anything they say about this now be believed?

 

It really is horrible.  As far as we know they just assassinated this guy and framed him for a murder from three years ago.

[Futch Winkleman]

Here's a summary of the backtracking (along the lines of what ALB had mentioned):

I'm concerned about anyone who isn't completely cynical about any and all of our government agencies.
