Are you aware that 50% of all murderers are NEVER caught? Technology be dammed.

But you're saying right there that even if we had the most competent Police Chief in the world in Moose's position- it's still only a coin toss they catch the guy- or?

I'm saying that IF their was an opportunity to catch this person, it is likely gone. This is now a media circus. Any time the sniper wants to know what the cops know, he only need tune into CNN or Fox.

You and I are not going to solve this case, therefore we dont need a running scorecard from Moose(head) on what is going on.

You dont catch a guy by telling the whole world where you are looking for him. These are the comments of the cops I know. They say that Moose should shut up, but he cant now, having established this precedence for a running media show.

Not at all. Some Chiefs would be close to 100%, some would be close to 0%. In one of the sheriff's campaigns (can't remember if it's local or if I read about it on FR), one of the candidates claims a 100% arrest and conviction rate for the 8 or so murders in his juristiction.
