trying to protect. First, they interrupt questioning to mirandize the bomber when they had 48 hours before they had to. They were collecting information, and under the direction of the DOJ were stopped by a magistrate. Now this. It leads me to believe they are protecting Islamic extremists - Muslim Brotherhood - unless someone has a better explanation. See link.
;After reading the linked even-handed article below, my understanding is that the court is required to mirandize defendants when they first appear before a judge. Federal rules also require defendants to have initial hearings “without unnecessary delay”—usually defined as within one business day. It would appear that Michael Rogers R-MI believes that when a judge acts in accordance with her sworn duty to uphold 5th and 6th Amendment Constitutional provisions, she is somehow "interfering" with the investigation. Some would agree, others would not (myself included).
After the first charges were filed in her court, Judge Bowler informed DOJ on Saturday of her intent to hold the hearing the following Monday at the hospital where she formally read Tsarnaev his rights and the charges against him. She cites intense television coverage of his capture as one reason she had decided to start criminal prosecution proceedings.
Andrew Arena, head of the Detroit office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation during the "underwear bomber'' investigation in 2009, said he thought the Boston case was handled properly: "When you bring the judge into it, that's what's going to happen. They don't work for the Justice Department, they don't work for Capitol Hill, they are going to do what they are legally obligated to do,'' said Mr. Arena. "I think [investigators] got what they were going to get out of him, anyway.''
Though “not happy about it,” the FBI was aware of the planned hospital-room hearing on Monday, but declined further comment. The House Intelligence Committee asked them why they had not raised objections, they said it was not their role to interfere with the judge’s decision to initiate proceedings. Statements made by Mr. Arena and the FBI makes sense since they align with the explicit Constitutional political doctrines of separation of powers, the FBI being part of the executive, not judicial, branch of government.
TH, there's really nothing new about these laws, principles or procedures. In fact, they are America's bedrock framework. There is also nothing new about partisans pols turning a blind eye to them and trying to confuse the issue with unnecessary hyperbolic rhetoric and misguided finger-pointing.
