“It’s not clear who shot Todashev, officials say, because — while he was being questioned by an FBI agent — officers from the Massachusetts state police and the Orlando police department were also present in the house where the interrogation was going on.”
“He was cooperative at first, they say, but later that night, he attacked the agent with a knife, who shot and killed him.”
That makes perfect sense. He attacked and FBI agent with a knife in the presence of at least two other armed LEO’s, and it’s not clear who shot him because of the presence of at least three LEO’s but it was the FBI agent he attacked who shot him.
Oh, now there’s Orlando cops? This is the first time I’ve seen this. All the previous articles said there was one Boston FBI and two Boston state police but no one from FL LE which is strange. The friend has said repeatedly there were three officers inside. So, have they just now realized they needed to get some local law enforcement in on this because not working with the locals looks suspicious?
He may not have been in the house alone, since he was reportedly married. That is, the other LEOs may have been keeping an eye on other people. Also, they were qeustioning him in his own apartment in a run-down area where there are evidently a lot of Chechens living, so it’s also possible that the others were watching for “assistance” from his Chechen buddies and then Todashev (who is an MMA specialist) went jihadi on the FBI agent and grabbed a knife.
Conspiracy to protect jihadis is always possible in the Obama regime, but I don’t think this was a case of it.
