Watch Live: Trump presser on DC crime and deploying the National Guard for law enforcement.Sec. 740 of DC HOME RULE ACT: DC IS officially federalized.

The Posse Comitatus Act limits active duty forces being used to enforce domestic policy. The National Guard is a different story.
It actually refers only to the Army and the Navy. But court decisions have broadened it to include all of our armed forces and that includes activated Guard.

But … (isn’t there always a “but”?) … it has exceptions. And because of the section of the DC Home Rule law, this is one of the exceptions.
 
I saw a lot of "high 5" on the Police Investigatory work. Got to be honest, it was not difficult to attain video footage. This is Utah, I do not think they would say no. Media did the rest. Glad they got the assassin in custody
