    So if a police officer doesn’t witness a murder they’re unable to use evidence that’s introduced by somebody else at court? Give me a break. They just don’t want to do the deposition and affidavit legwork and hope the non police officer witness shows up in court to introduce evidence if challenged. It’s a more pain in the ass case that has more ways to fall apart (identification, the witness or the officer just not showing up) but it’s just laziness.

      that, and, ideologically the cops don’t care about victims, especially if the perp is one of them. the car cult is not going to police itself.
