Ever hear the term "fog of war"? It is a real thing. This is not a slickly produced TV show for entertainment. I think a lot of folks have the concept of reality confused with television.
And I am getting tired of all the sinister motives being assigned to every damned thing here. (Not specifically addressed - if the shoe fits....
Whatever..take it up with someone who cares.
Precisely - I've maid this point a few times. What drives a lot of conspiracy stuff, stupid statements like "there are no coincidences" are people's understanding of the world being driven completely by TV and film.
Sure, there may be one red herring in a TV crime drama, or there may be a dramatic twist at the end, but what you don't have that the real world has is an immense amount of inaccurate, meaningless "noise." CSI doesn't have botched lab tests, or preliminary tests for a poison that turn out to be wrong. Crime movies only have witnesses that lie - they don't have witnesses that were simply mistaken. They don't have time to include all those things and they don't "move the plot" along.
Only a handful of movies may escape this - something like Kurosawa's Rashomon, and other remakes based on that same plot premise.
