Family of Theodore Deschler killed by FBI in pre-dawn raid demand answers saying law enforcement haven't explained why he was shot dead

A family is seeking answers after FBI agents killed their relative in a predawn raid, claiming the victim, a disabled vet, had been unarmed when he was shot.

Previously, the suspect, 45-year-old Theodore 'Teddy' Deschler, was arrested as a suspect after a fatal stabbing at a Tennessee gas station in May - but as for why he was targeted this month by FBI SWAT agents, feds have so far kept silent.

'Teddy was a 100% disabled veteran,' he added, speaking to the outlet on August 20.

He went on to concede of his sibling - who reportedly served for eight years from 1996 to 2004 - 'He had problems. He had severe PTSD. He had depression but he was getting help for it, but this was senseless.'

'He didn't have a weapon on him,' Russell recalled, a day before erecting an online fundraiser for what he bill as the 'severe destruction of [his] elderly Mothers home.'

'He was just trying to get out of the house because it was filled with tear gas,' he claimed.

'You couldn't see,' he continued, despite not being present at the time of the fatal shooting.

He added: 'The height of the door and where Teddy was standing when they shot him and killed him, you couldn't see if he was armed or not.

I guess with all the money the feds are spending persecuting Trump et al, they can't afford to prosecute the low hanging fruit, onesy-twosies cases so the FBI just shows up and kills them.

Of course not. This is how the fbi stasi works. They get to murder anyone they want, anytime they want.

Getting pretty convinced that to be in the FIB, you’ve got to sell your soul to tue devil. There are way, way, too many things like this. Combined with non-prosecutions and investigations into real criminals and leftists, what rational person could think otherwise?

Why?



It's all about sending a message. It's a form of communication. Don't threaten us.

It's not about the victims. It's about everyone else.

Can we just state a simple fact - Theodore ‘Teddy’ Deschler was MURDERED.

FBI PLANNED and then sent in an ARMED TACTICAL SWAT TEAM. They weren’t there selling Girl Scout Cookies. They were sent there specifically to MURDER Theodore ‘Teddy’ Deschler. I can’t believe the FBI had any intent on letting Teddy come out of this alive.

TWO incidents in a short period, something is up.

When the reputation of a law enforcement agency goes down, good people don't apply for jobs...but bad people do in greater numbers.

And you end up with an increasingly evil agency.

Ergo...

It’s what the FBI does.

You needed 2 events

1. Threaten a protected politician and you get killed
2. Threaten an undesirable politician(Trump) and you don’t get killed

Any organization is only as good as the worst psycho they tolerate in their ranks.

Deschler must have been White because this story is getting no publicity whatsoever.

He may have had incriminating evidence or FBI was ordered to do so.

"TWO incidents in a short period, something is up."

Sending a message to ex military perhaps? Strange that these happened so close together and don't make sense. 🤔

Nazis used the power of suggestion with messages on the Jewish People, until they decided it was easier and quicker just to ‘cook’ your enemies.

Yep, the FBI is telling the nation that they will kill anyone, anywhere, anytime and there isn’t a damn thing the people can do about it. This is the “New Brave World”. The Biden administration is the most ruthless one the US has ever had.
