2. Normal procedure in forensics

7. This would be my guess also. Protect it from incidental damage... and bird poop.

3. On CNN they said it's SOP to cover up a confiscated vehicle

in order to preserve evidence (there can be evidence on the outside as well as the inside). In any event it would have been too late because there are already photos on the internet.

4. No. FBI standard procedure.

5. Of course Trump didn't order it

Some days you get as many conspiracy theories on DU as Alex Jones.

6. Sarcasm.

9. FBI agent in CNN

is who said that is always done as standard procedure. Since they are still looking for evidence they want to protect the vehicle while it is being transported.

8. Doubtful, but it is sad that the FBI can't tie a tarp down properly. Were no Boy Souts available?
