An open case such as this can threaten the job of the Police Chief. Arresting the husband regardless of the truth is often a way in my estimation that Police Departments use to close otherwise sticky cases. Another common case is ruling murders as suicides. A murder requires a lot of investigation. If the case is ruled as a suicide the Police can close the books on it without a second thought.<br /><br />I am not against police and many officers are good men doing a difficult job. However, those in power such as police chiefs or those they answer to are often under pressure to remove sticky problems from the public eye. Closing the case with a false arrest often satisfied the police requirements, the courts and the media. Hence politics over-rides justice.<br /><br />I do not know the particulars of this case but I do know of personal situations and other murders that fall into this category of beinng falsely silenced.<br /><br />NealAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04216510784106038853noreply@blogger.com
