Could someone help me understand why the Minnesota AG could not get a court order and search this shooters house as soon as the shooters name was released, and people were observed helping moving stuff out of shooters home? I'm having trouble understanding this. I feel local and or state police could have taped off this area for local investigation, even though FBI took over the investigation.

Which begs another question.
Why didn't they?

(26,411 posts)didn't seem like that was happening to me. Too loose. Forensic evidence that could have helped in figuring out the crime scene (i.e., trajectory measurements; wheel direction of the car; was the foot of the deceased woman in the car stuck on or depressed on the accelerator; etc) seemed to be neglected.
Isolating the ICE members that were on the scene at the time.
Did anyone talk with the deceased woman's passenger to determine what was being said and what was happening as the shots were fired.
Seemed like a very unprofessional assessment of the crime scene from a time and accuracy standpoint.

Oh wait, no
Actually I don't think there's any problem with casting some blame here. Did MN law enforcement even TRY to insert themselves in this process?

I'd check for pain meds. And steroids.

Probably as soon as political official reviewed the shooter's cellphone video.
