It's not a matter of an agenda.

Its a matter of competence.

I am an employer (5 employees). If I told one of them to check to make sure a machine was turned off before another employee checked it, I would expect it to be done.

If his incompetence resulted in a death, the employee would be fired. (and I would be sued)

When you tell a trained officer to search a car, and he fails to find three dying boys in the trunk, you could say he did a VERY sloppy job.

People who work in a drive-in theater know how to search a car for people. It's not difficult.

Got it. I realize that you are trying to put the focus on the actions or inactions of the officers. But that isn't my point. An investigation needs to be done and people should be punished accordingly.

The reality of it is, Linkinpunk, that our worldviews are in conflict. We agree up until the point of punishment...you are litigiously-minded...I am not. I don't care for government workers and I don't care for trial lawyers. To me they are birds of a feather.
