The job of investigators is to investigate. If they find probable cause to believe a crime has been committed, their obligation is to find out who committed the crime - the more serious the crime, the more investigative time and effort it gets. Killings, whether justified, excusable, manslaughter, or murder get the very most. When they are done, off goes the investigation to the prosecutor for a decision on prosecution or perhaps further investigation.

If you believe a jury won't convict in SD cases you could talk to Travis McMichael, Gregory McMichael, and their neighbor William "Roddie" Bryan.
