The wheels of justice grind slow, but they grind exceedingly fine? — 6 Comments
> With TV shows like CSI and Law & Order
I don’t think this is fair to those shows, although true.
How many cops shows do you know who never solved a case? Even if there was an “unsolved case”, it is in the context of one of the detectives reopening it and solving it.
NYPD Blue was the same.
It’s a pretty rare show that has any cases left open and unsolved. The original Dragnet may have done that once in a while.
Ditto Law shows… how many cases can you recall where the attorneys in question lost a case with an innocent involved?

Yeah, I was gonna say, Hoffa’s next.

Did the wheels of justice grind at all here? The answer is known, but I don’t see how anyone paid a price for it…
😉
Nonetheless, interesting post. Now if only you can track down Trotsky…
I suspect in the near future you’ll get a similar confession regarding JFK.
With TV shows like CSI and Law & Order, many people get the wrong idea that most crimes are solved routinely. This post is a perfect example of the reality in law enforcement. Most crimes are never solved. Those that are solved at a later date (cold cases) are solved as a consequence of a deathbed confession and not the crime labs and brilliant detective work.
Goesh–glad to see a real comment here. The first three were spambots, now deleted–arghhhh!! I really don’t enjoy being the spambot police.
– the big mystery prior to Jimmy Hoffa sleeping with the fishes, or is he hiding out in Brazil??? I liked the part about Crater supposedly being seen on the back of a burro….the lighter side of things is a nice touch to have to a blog that is becoming popular
