The Problem With Having Those At Fault Conduct The Investigation


In the death by "friendly fire" (a fact kept from the family for some time) of sports hero Pat Tillman, the Department of Defense has conducted a careful investigation of itself and declared itself not guilty (though they did recommend hand slaps for nine Army officers involved).

This is the problem with ANY entity investigating itself. It can be hard to find a fair and impartial judge at any time, but it gets a LOT tougher when you evaluate yourself.

What say you?
