From the final line in the article referenced. > “Criminal investigations into cases like this are rarely successful.” Ron, You don't have to be pro or con on any side of a political debate, to bare witness. By this, mean, that a person can just pay attention, as best as they can, to a criminal investigation as it unfolds in the media. Not that the media, always delivers objectively or accurately. However following a case over the long-term, can serve as an educational exercise into how a criminal investigation is often handled in one place, compared to another. For example, last year, a Canadian couple vacationing during their daughter's wedding were brutally murdered in the Yucatan. In the months that followed, details surrounding that case, made head-lines in papers in both countries. As the case became high profile, details came out how the investigation was handled or not handled. Can these tragic deaths serve as 'cautionary' tales as to what can and does happen? Heads-up as opposed to head in the sand?
