Examples of investigating in a Sentence
We are tired of the words. We want to see action, we want to see fair compensation for victims of police brutality, we want to see a fair response and an impartial investigation not cops investigating themselves.
We've assigned an investigating officer to look into that and to really to look into the proximate cause. Was there an immediate trigger ? Was there a linkage between those events ? I expect that to report out this week, and I won't presuppose the outcome of that report.
The information that we have in this report is absolutely worthwhile for the investigating agencies to take notice of, the investigative agencies… really do have to run this sort of information down to help identify the motivation.
Attorney General William Barr:
The pandemic is dangerous enough without wrongdoers seeking to profit from public panic and this sort of conduct can not be tolerated, it is essential that the Department of Justice remain vigilant in detecting, investigating, and prosecuting wrongdoing related to the crisis. CORONAVIRUS DOES NOT AFFECT NUCLEAR WEAPONS LAUNCH.
Some Republicans are hoping lawmakers will soon wrap up investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 election that have dragged on for most of the year. But with new details in the probe emerging almost daily, that seems unlikely. Three congressional committees are investigating Russian interference and whether President Donald Trump’s campaign was in any way involved. The panels have obtained thousands of pages of documents from Trump’s campaign and other officials, and have done dozens of interviews. The probes are separate from special counselRobert Mueller’s investigation. Special CounselRobert Mueller can prosecute for criminal activity, while Congress can only lay out findings, publicize any perceived wrongdoing and pass legislation to try to keep problems from happening again. If any committee finds evidence of criminal activity, it must refer the matter to Special CounselRobert Mueller. All three committees have focused on a June 2016 meeting that President Donald Trump campaign officials held in Trump Tower with a Russian lawyer and others.
