'The fix is in' as DHS wrongly usurps power over new killing investigation: legal expert

A new DHS announcement that it will be investigating the latest agent-involved shooting, instead of the FBI, set off alarm bells for one legal expert.

MS NOW host Alex Witt read the statement on air on Saturday, saying, "I'm just getting something handed to me," before noting that it is a statement from DHS suggesting "that it will investigate the fatal shooting of a 37-year-old protester by its officers rather than the FBI."

"So they're gonna be investigating that which they already issued a summary about," she said.
