Two Dallas-area Democratic lawmakers went to the FBI on Thursday to demand more information about the three detainees who were shot, one fatally, in their home state earlier in the week.
Reps. Marc Veasey and Jasmine Crockett went to the FBI’s headquarters, the J. Edgar Hoover Building, on Thursday afternoon to ask why they hadn’t heard back about the Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainees who were shot. They argued that the lack of information about the shooting’s victims was unusual.
“If they had just had press conferences, if they had just briefed members of Congress the way that we normally do things around here, then we wouldn’t be in this situation that we are now,” Veasey told NOTUS before entering.
