Acting U.S. Attorney General Blanche on WHCD Shooting: ‘We Will Ensure that Accountability Is Swift and Certain’; ‘Law Enforcement Did Not Fail’

TRANSCRIPT:

BLANCHE: “We are investigating this matter fully. We will apply the law fairly and we will ensure that accountability is swift and certain. But we also should recognize what did not happen. Law enforcement did not fail. They did exactly what they are trained to do. This was not an accident. It was a result, as we know now, of preparation. But the men and women who protected us that night were trained, professional, and had an enduring commitment to the rule of law.”
