Nobody ever said cops had brains.
In fact, if you have too high of an IQ, they won't hire you.
If they were so smart, they would have acted on the information they got 2 or 3 years ago in vancouver and maybe a lot of women might still be alive.
If cops were that smart, they would have looked behind a POT light and Karla would be in jail for the rest of her life instead of getting out next week.
If they were that smart, David Milgard would not have spent most of his life in jail for something he didn't do. Steven Truscott would not have been staring at a noose. Guy Paul Morin would not have been accused of killing a kid.
Craig Bromell would be bouncing at the local drunk bar instead of head of the police association.
It just goes on and on and on.
