I think it comes from whoever was chief at the time. The others toe the line until they become chief then they have their theories. How many police chiefs have there been since the start of this? Not just since the start of when the bodies were found (ie Gilbert's disappearance) but when they initially disappeared.
I don't know but I know re Harrison on the show I watched, they do the "right" thing and resign as a new administration is coming in (politics) which I find unfortunate but is the classy or respectful way of doing so (I like the right words). I'd take that to mean you exit with dignity and easily before the other side replaces you. Not sure who new is coming in, do they mean mayor probably since it is city/police chief?
He was looking at leaving prior to this. I don't think anything is "wrong". Maybe he was waiting to see I don't know. Don't know if there was just an election or enough about it but he keeps mentioning family decision and a daughter quite big in the basketball world he wants to watch more of.
Whatever the case, I think it bites. He came in, created a task force and got results. I don't doubt he had to step on some feet, butt heads and go against some corruption to do so. Just my guess. Politics should have nothing to do with justice but unfortunately that's where it seems we are at and it trumps justice any longer, it seems, far too often and in too many cases and this one reeks as well of corruption and people of name, position or power involved over the years. Maybe just in relation to being part of the swinging, sex worker, porn, sexual deviant or twisted underbelly world or more than that, involved in Gilbert or with CB, who knows. And maybe only Burke or more than Burke through the years. At least ignored and at times intentionally screwed up imo.
Maybe the recent bit of him being seen with and working with or talking to Ray and the DA definitely not on the same page with that was that he knew he was leaving and decided to go against what he has probably been told NOT TO DO and was showing us all and them the RIGHT way to work this case, you ignore no tips nor information the victims' attorneys may have.
Whatever the case, I am concerned about it. He clearly can't go too far or wants to leave on a good note but "we" (public) are going to need to keep the next accountable and pursuing the info, meaning like Ray's info and swinging cop, etc. --I would HOPE we can trust them to continue to pursue the normal routes of investigation, testing and charging but who knows. Seems to me it was him getting them to talk to jailed sex workers, etc. or I don't think it would have happened. And to Ray.
I'd hope he stays involved in the sense of coming on shows. No longer in that position he should be able to if he so chooses.
Anywho, not even sure what I mean, way behind on all threads, hardly been on. Don't know enough to say but as I talked here I realized maybe he did the things with Ray as he knew he was leaving and why not...? Without saying a bad word about a single peron, not the DA, not anyone, he shows that you don't let the corrupt or the political b.s. or stfufy attitudes or ways hinder a full investigation.
I really lack good words this morn and these are just newly forming thoughts as I answer here...
