Fair or not, we can’t take the Augusta County criminal-justice apparatus at its word that there’s no there there with respect to the shooting of Dustin Griffin, 42, by two sheriff’s deputies on the night of Dec. 17.

In this podcast, I go over where we are with the investigation, which is still ongoing, even as the Commonwealth’s Attorney, Tim Martin, has already decided to exonerate the deputies who shot and killed Griffin as they attempted to serve an arrest warrant at a location west of Staunton.
