    Yeah, but if you look at clearance rates for cops they’re significantly lower than crime dramas would have you believe. Cops unbelievably incompetent, they regularly botch DNA and completely destroy evidence. Some crime labs don’t even have manuals. When you read police accountability reports, you start to realize tye CSI thing is a total lie and they usually just torture or terrorize random black and brown people in to confessing to things they didn’t do.

    It’s rare and newsworthy when they actually do detective work and crack a case, and even then it’s usually because they had tons of help from people who aren’t cops. I’m not at all surprised that someone could spend their whole life committing major felonies and that they never got caught.
