Todashev father presses FBI for answers in son's death - Video on NBCNews.com

In this video from August, the latest one I could find, Rachel Maddow makes the same points that many on the right make about police shootings. Perhaps the OP just doesn't like the source. Over past 20 years there have been 150 FBI shootings and in every case the internal investigation (the only investigation) found the shootings justifiable. The FBI never made a mistake in 20 years. Maddow also says that you should never talk to the police without your lawyer present. Todashev let the FBI into his apartment where they interrogated him for 8 hours before he was shot.

If the police arrived at my door and wanted me go 'downtown' for questioning I wouldn't go unless I was under arrest, I'd stay in doorway and wouldn't step outside (where they can detain me), and wouldn't let them inside. Unless I'm under arrest they can talk to me through the screen door. I've never understood cop shows where people voluntarily go in for questioning.

Either its the religious right saying its the end times or the far left saying its the end times because of climate change and driving cars. I think we would be better off without either.
How do you know that Todashev was involved?

Confessions can be coerced and the FBI was bound to a lot of pressure on any associate of Tamerlan.

Seems like this is a legitimate news story to me. The fact that many people in this country think it's okay to murder unarmed people and then make up lies to justify it afterwords doesn't somehow make the story not news.

If you don't like the FBI being called out for murdering an unarmed person and then making up excuse after excuse and lie after lie for why it happened, then change the channel. There's at least one network that caters to people who approve of unjustified murder of non-WASPs.

OP, Obama had yet another screw up and her job is to divert attention away from it.

Default too biased

I agree, I dont know whats worse, the left or the right, in the old days reporters were just that , they reported, now they are political preachers, preaching a very specific political agenda.They carefully cherry pick details of a story that fit their party line and censor out the rest.they have guests that are there just to reinforce the party line or have guests that have opposing points of view just to interrupt them and ridicule them.
