    Ethics, morality, just doing the right thing, meaningless to Trump. He wants to sell weapons to the Saudis. He does not care if they kill reporters. Trump would do it if he could get away with it.

    Until the murderers are punished. That's what prosecutions are for.

    Canada is a UN member state and the UN is currently conducting the investigation. You're a cleverer PostmortemProphylactic than you thought !

    The request was for the FBI to ASSIST, PostmortemProphylactic, not for the FBI to take over the murder investigation.
    Trump has refused the request. Catch the stink.

    FYI... the FBI does not have the jurisdiction to investigate murders overseas unless they involve American citizens. Pretty sure Khashoggi was a Saudi national, here on a visa. If that is correct, they do not have the power to investigate.

    That said, Trump is an idiot for not simply saying that.

    OK- Khashoggi was IN the USA and left the US to travel to Turkey to attend the Saudi embassy due to information he received IN the USA . The investigation will want to how this information was delivered to him IN the USA and what advice was given to him regarding travel to Turkey while he was IN the USA and who was it IN the USA that provided the advice which led to his murder and dismemberment.
    Trump is refusing to provide this assistance. The stink pervades.

    US intelligence reports
    The Washington Post reported on 10 October 2018 that U.S. intelligence intercepted communications of Saudi officials discussing a plan ordered by the Crown Prince Bin Salman, to capture Khashoggi from his home in Virginia.[52][53] The intercepted communications were regarded as significant because Khashoggi had bought a home in McLean, Virginia,[54] where he lived after fleeing the KSA. Khashoggi had obtained an O visa – also known as the "genius" visa, that offers individuals of "extraordinary ability and achievement" in the sciences, arts, education, and other fields and are recognized internationally – he had applied for permanent residency status, and three of his children were US citizens.[55][56] As a legal resident of the United States Khashoggi was entitled to protection. Under a directive adopted in 2015, the US intelligence community has a "duty to warn" people – including those who are not US citizens – who are at risk of being kidnapped or killed. This directive was a central aspect of the conversation about the US's response to Khashoggi's disappearance.

    Khashoggi had applied for U.S. citizenship[57] and was offered and he accepted a position as a fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars (or Wilson Center), located in Washington, D.C.[58]

    According to the National Security Agency (NSA) officials, the White House was warned of this threat through official intelligence channels.[59] The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) of Dan Coats declined to comment on why Khashoggi was not warned.[56] 55 members of Congress demanded in a letter clarity from DNI Dan Coats on what the intelligence community knew about the risk Khashoggi faced before his disappearance and whether American officials attempted to notify him that his life was in danger. In the letter, they sought insight into everything the NSA knows about phone calls and emails from Saudi officials on the Khashoggi case.[60]

    The Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University filed a lawsuit against five US intelligence services "seeking immediate release of records concerning U.S. intelligence agencies' compliance or non-compliance with their 'duty to warn' reporter Jamal Khashoggi of threats to his life or liberty". The Committee to Protect Journalists joined the legal effort.[61][62]

    OK ? US intelligence is in this up to its neck.

    I would ask- did the US betray Khashoggi in order to SECURE arms deals with the Saudi degenerates ? Is that why Trump has dropped the shutters ?
    I'm just a Jill Blow- so you can bet your US-made penis-pump that the UN has asked itself the same question. Amongst others.

    Ok... that is fair if that is what they were asking for. As long as it is centered on that, should not be a problem, unless the FBI has already provided such info to the Canadian led investigation.
