Episode notes
Simple Police Work Solved The Case Fast
- Investigators often solve cases quickly using basic forensics and video, not only high-end FBI tools.
- Public tips and rewards can be decisive when identifying suspects from surveillance footage.
Family Surrendered Suspect To Protect Him
- The suspect's family turned him in after weighing risks and safety concerns for him and the community.
- The father contacted a retired U.S. Marshal and surrendered the son to avoid a dangerous arrest scenario.
State Prosecution Is The Stronger Path
- Federal charges are limited because U.S. law lacks a domestic terrorism statute and political belief isn't a protected class.
- State murder charges are the stronger, more appropriate route while feds may reserve charges as backup.
