It does good to study what ifs.
Doesn't seem to do me much good!
Regardless of IDI or RDI, LE could've found JBR soon after they got there. That would've changed the broadcast to what? It matters because the broadcast could've been more detailed than you think.
Ah. I see.
Intruders fleeing the scene could, if pulled over, match the broadcast. All the broadcast needed was one statement.
I figured that's what you meant. Okay, then I'll play ball. Let's say it did happen. In my opinion, ultimately it would have changed nothing. Sure, they may have picked up a few people matching some vague "description," but in the end, if there truly was no intruder, as I think, then all it would have done is create more problems, waste more resources, etc. And as far as I'm concerned, the BPD spent too much time and money on wild goose chases as it was.
