I think the FBI’s issue with not apologizing has something to do with culpability/liability. If they had apologized, I’m sure some lawyer-type would find some precedent case for suing the hell out of the FBI. This way, they were just “doing their jobs” and they can’t be faulted for that, right?
That being said, the FBI should certainly consider some sort of damage control program, where when this sort of thing happens, they have someone to make nice-nice and have the suspect sign some papers acknowledging the situation and promising not to sue. Hell, throw a commendation for good behavior and he’ll have something to show the grandkids.
