a) Saudis wanted to take out Khashoggi quietly, badly messed up. b) Saudis wanted to kill Khashoggi loudly to send a message to critics ("this is what happens when you criticize MBS!") and possibly Turkey ("look at what we can do on your soil!") Has to be a or b. Neither is good.
I don't think that's weird. Better to be involved than on the outside. Show concern. Take it seriously. Then declare the investigation cleared you (whether it did or not), and say any reports to the contrary are biased fake news.

It makes sense if you are SA, sure. I meant it makes no sense for Turkey. Did Scotland Yard join a Russian sponsored 'joint investigation' re: the poisonings? I'll have to look, but I don't think so.
