Per a previous post, I am still interested in opinion as to why the FBI called in and not the Texas Rangers.
IMO the FBI involvement indicates that something is 'hinky' about this case. LE disagreeing with MR I think supports this. I don't think the FBI would get involved in a case just to placate the friends of NO. I am sure they carefully determine where their resources are needed and especially so during a Govt shutdown.
The Texas Rangers appear to have a crime lab and I would imagine they could just as effectively gather electronic surveillance as the FBI. Their responsibilities are murder and questionable deaths (per below link).
Why the FBI then? I am not saying it should not be the FBI but it could be helpful to understand why them as this might provide some insight as to why this case is 'hinky'.
