Family of man killed at Beavercreek Walmart ask US Attorney to take over and politicize his killing. I can understand wanting an investigation as far from the local police as possible, but getting Holder involved would be a disaster.

"“What they saw really, really bothered us,” Hilton said Thursday. “They saw the police coming in and John Crawford III having this air gun pointed toward the floor, looking at the shelf. The next thing they see is he drops to the floor, he’s been hit by bullets. We’re very concerned about that. We just need to get the entire video released so the community can know what happened.”"

This is bizarre:

"An area police chaplain and minister, Mike Crain of Huber Heights, started the “I support the Beavercreek Police Department” Facebook page Aug. 9, which now has more than 2,700 likes. He said the informal rally isn’t meant to be divisive.
“I’ve tried to make it clear to the participants that this isn’t a right versus wrong (event), this isn’t a time to try to place blame,” Crain said. “This is just to say, hey, we are supporters of the Beavercreek police department.”"

One man shooting another dead is certainly an event that demands an evaluation of right versus wrong. It sounds like this pastor has a conflict of interest.
