Isn’t the FBI under the DOJ?
Theoretically LOL
Yes, indeed!
In fact, during FBI's "OKBOMB" investigation, the DOJ's OIG Report on the FBI Explosives Lab thoroughly trashed their work on OKBOMB. So much so, that the FBI had to hire a (female) "explosives expert" from Britain to testify at the McVeigh trial...
To understand why I have a documented mistrust of the FBI Labs' work -- and of the FBI in general -- simply review the DOJ OIG's Conclusion to the OKC section. (Emphasis Mine...) Williams' report contains several serious flaws. His opinion as to the VOD of the main charge was unjustifiable; his statement of the VOD of ANFO was incomplete; his categorical identification of the main charge as ANFO was inappropriate; his estimate of the weight of the main charge was too specific and based in part on improper grounds; his conclusion as to the containers for the main charge was unjustifiably categorical; his categorical identification of the initiator for the booster was improper; his conclusions concerning a non-electric detonator, the fuse, and the time delay were scientifically insupportable; his conclusions were not supported by the contents of the report; and he included some AE dictation in a selective or confusing way. These errors were all tilted in such a way as to incriminate the defendants. We are troubled that the opinions in Williams' report may have been tailored to conform to the evidence associated with the defendants. We conclude that Williams failed to present an objective, unbiased, competent report. SECTION G: OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING V. Conclusion
IOW, "Nice job -- except..." '-}
BTW, Horowitz also is the DOJ -- not FBI -- Inspector General
