FBI agents said to oppose inquiry (shooting of Eagle Scout in Maryland)

Two senior agents from the FBI's Baltimore office told a private detective yesterday that the mistaken shooting of an unarmed Pasadena man likely would be ruled a "clean shoot," and discouraged him from looking into the case further, the investigator said in an interview. Dudley F.B. "Butch" Hodgson, a former FBI agent who has been retained by the shooting victim's lawyers, said he was told by one of the agents: "There's no middle ground in this thing. You're either with us or against us."

Everyone knows that all FBI agents, clearly, have criminal tendencies.

I was clearly writing about the Feeb leadership,and the reason they were formed. Yet for some reason you want to try to twist this into a blanket accussation against every agent who ever worked for them. I wonder why?

Yep, and they don't even have the decency to quit their jobs. I guess it's ok to protect and serve until someone with an M4 shows up claiming to trumpt your jurisdiction in your own town.

The federal bank robbery law needs to be repealed. No federal agency should ever be empowered to usurp the authority of local LE except in the federal crimes specified in the Constitution. Bank robbery should remain a state offense only.

Hey UB, please put a letter in your bank vault or with your lawyer or someplace that will be opened at your death informing all that you are Uncle Bill of FR and your unfortunate death by unknown gunmen just may have highly questionable causes. My commendations on your research and postings.

This case is plainly a "dirty shoot" because the boy was told to get out of the car, and simply was unbuckling his seat belt: he was following directions and made no furtive movement.

Is this a case where seat belts KILL ?

I dread the day when I get stopped. If by the time the officer comes to the door I have gotten and opened my wallet I would have had to undo my seat belt. Would I now be cited for a seat belt violation?
