Specifically, investigation of police should the purview of the Federal Justice Department.

I disagree. We need more state rights and autonomy, we don't need the Feds to come in and babysit a state.

What Chicago needs to do is get managed by IL. And IL needs to realize that the corrupt people are getting voted in by IL citizens.

And yet the federal government is the only entity so far that seems to have any effect on police brutality. States have a history of ignoring or actively disparaging civil rights. Occasionally federalism is a harmless relic, but a lot of times the people crying about the federal government babysitting them are the ones who are trying to act unconstitutionally.
