Watchdog agency allowed Virginia State Police to investigate itself after a trooper kidnapped a teen girl
Fox News
A document revealed that a watchdog agency allowed the Virginia State Police to investigate itself despite Gov. Glenn Youngkin requesting the agency to conduct a full probe.
A memorandum of understanding between state police and the Office of the State Inspector General, the watchdog agency tasked with investigating waste and rooting out inefficiencies in state government, says that in nearly all cases, VSP retains responsibility for "the oversight and conduct of internal investigations of its personnel."
The memorandum makes an exception for allegations against the superintendent or deputy superintendent of the state police, which would be handled by OSIG.
