The Justice Department has begun an open criminal investigation into the killing of photojournalist James Foley, Attorney General Eric Holder said on Thursday.
Speaking at a press conference in Washington to announce a $17 billion settlement with Bank of America, the attorney general was asked about Foley. The Justice Department is actively pursuing justice in this case. We have an open criminal investigation, Holder said, adding later that the department will vigorously proceed with the probe.

Have they convicted Darren Wilson yet for it?
You do that, Holder. And we’ll continue to laugh at your pathetic charade.
The DOJ is an open joke under the Holderdorkfelon.
We only care about them because they are now as crime ridden as your typical democrat city.
I pity the large honest majority who work there in the DOA because they’re sharp enough to realize that the rest of America considers them to be a joke.
Think of what it would be like to have your morning email orders given to you by a corrupt idiot.
Send in the lawyers - ISIS is trembling.
Can I ask a stupid question? How can Holder have a probe into the beheading of an American by ISIS forces overseas? Is he going to indict someone in an American court, hold a trial, and all that? Where exactly is he going with this? What is the purpose of such a probe? What is the expected result, given the very slim odds that we will ever catch the perpetrator???
Obama/Holder want Wilson innocent ,so Holder’s hired agitators can continue the destruction
LOL! Gonna have to take some of the "investigators" off of "investigating" the old ladies in the TEA Party.
DOJ investigating Foley death, you may find this is also connected to Fast and Furious ,The Mid East chapter
I noticed that despite their bloviating they never did go after George Zimmerman like they said they would.
So you might have a good point there.
Foley was beheaded by an Islamic ISIS operative (Terrorist). Can I collect the 5 million that will be spent on the investigation now?
There, fixed it.
Obama continues to treat Islamic terrorism as a criminal matter. We are at war with radical, fundamentalist Islam. Would FDR have ordered a criminal investigation for the individual Japanese pilots who bombed Pearl Harbor?
Why isn’t John F’in Kerry reporting for duty on this instead of Holder?
There’ll be no serious investigation. Obviously this is supposed to calm American outrage while continuing to pretend that there’s nothing to see here, resurgent Islam is not a threat.
Grand Jury indictment of ISIS is imminent...
Yes, good point. In fact, its probably something that ISIS will use as a propaganda tool for recruiting: they attack and destory, we respond with investigations and lawyers.
This is the epitome of weakness, which is exactly what ISIS wants its troops to believe about us.
That's because absent a criminal conviction, pursuing and winning a civil rights case is almost exponentially more difficult.
Hard to prove a civil rights violation if no violation of the law occurred. That is, unless Holder stacks the deck with nothing but black jurors.
We know what happens when a jury is stacked with black jurors --- just ask OJ Simpson and Nicole Brown's family.
Is this like workplace violence? What a joke!
