The part you bolded suggests to me that you believe they are investigating because there is a strong possibility of police wrongdoing, but that is entirely incorrect. I'd wager a guess that any in custody death is ALWAYS investigated by these such units. Similar to when someone is shot by police, it is investigated by homicide.
I don't think this looks badly on the CPS at all right now. I am not surprised however, that some people are jumping to conclusions.
