was immediately calm in responding. we have a command post setup, and everyone is asking what we can do and how we can pitch in. the individuals from several hours away, the new york state police and the fbi are investigating that part of the crime as well. i will turn this over to erie county sheriff, john garcia. thank you. thank you, commissioner romalio. as your sheriff and on behalf of the men and women of the sheriff s office, our condolences to the victims and their families. from law enforcement standpoint, the erie county sheriff s office responded, boots on the ground, deputies, investigators, a helicopter in the air, our swat team on standby, and as commissioner romalio said, we are working together every day to keep the community safe. this was pure evil. it was straight up racially motivated hate crime from somebody outside of our
of law enforcement everyone who was immediately calling and responding we had command post set up everyone is asking what can we do and how can we pitch in? the individual some several hours away the near state police the fbi are investigating that part of the crime as well. i ll turn this over at this point to john garcia, thank you. x thank you commissioner. as sure sheriff on behalf of the men and women of the erie county sheriff s office, our condolences to the victims and their families. from the law enforcement standpoint, the erie county sheriff s office responded boots on the ground deputies investigators, or helicopter in the air, swat team on standby and commissioner said we are working together every single day to keep the committee safe. this was pure evil. straight up a racially motivated
attack, we are still left wondering, what happened inside the fbi, inside dhs, that led to this massive oversight? and that is very concerning. do you think from the law enforcement standpoint that, you know, these extremist groups are more closely watched now? that we know more about the potential threats? i have no doubt. i m quite confident that at least within the fbi resources were likely reprogrammed, strengths and the attention of our analysts and our agents have been trained much more seriously on the domestic terrorist threat. and director wray has head of to that effect. the question is, what were the underlying assumptions? what were had he how did they think about the intelligence that they had before january 6th? and how have they changed those assumptions and that math now. you talked to the chairman
it is the fbi s number one priority to prevent acts of terrorism in the united states. we had a massive act of domestic terrorism on our very capitol grounds. so that is a failure by definition. we have not yet heard from the fbi or from director wray exactly what they think led to that failure. i think many of the senior leadership public responses and testimony has been defensive rather than transparent. and so, a year after this attack, we are still left wondering, what happened inside the fbi, inside dhs, that led to this massive oversight? and that is very concerning. do you think from the law enforcement standpoint that, you know, these extremist groups are more closely watched now? that we know more about the potential threats? i have no doubt. i m quite confident that at least within the fbi resources were likely reprogrammed, strengths and the attention of our analysts and our agents have been trained much more seriously on the domestic terrorist threat. and director wray
here other than fleeing and incident. not a normal thing at all. grateful for the reporting. let s bring in anthony barksdale. as evan laid out you have a person of interest, not yet in official custody. we all of the video from the busy parade route. from a law enforcement standpoint, what is today about as you try to piece together what happened, and if there is a why, why? it s about building a clear timeline of the entire incident. it s about trying to get a confession out of this person of interest which it may be hard for law enforcement to get, but they have to start building a prosecutable case against this individual, so hopefully they are in contact with attorneys to be sure that everything is covered as they are working to make this case. and so and forgive me, forgive me.
