Because when law agencies out bluff one another the turf wars have begun.
The locals chose the judge and it's now their turf
What you're seeing is a TURF/GANG WAR between agencies.
Wait. You may not see it.
Those cops should have put in cuffs at that point.
Not the FDLE tucking and running.
It was a poker play and the bad guys won.
But in this game, there is no second chance.
Simply because you don't want something to happen makes the results of not doing anything go away.
There are consequences for inaction.
Terri dies.
FDLE is cold-cocked.
Gov. Bush is not in charge - Judge Greer is.
You can't fault Bush for lack of balls on the part of the agents in charge of the rescue operation,
Oh wait yes you can, you're myopic.
