There is a difference in being slow and deliberate vs. trying to avoid the issue all together.

It sounds as though Garland's DOJ fell into the latter category until various factors came together in such a way that he had little choice but to pursue finally pursue an investigation.

That is a failure of justice. Once again, in trying to avoid being """political,""" Garland appears to have made some decisions (and non-decisions) that very much steeped in politics and, to make matters worse, in doing so, he strayed away from what should be his guiding light, which is simply do what's right and treat everyone equally under the law.
