I am not trying to condemn anyone. I want LE to learn and to realize that John Q. Public is their best ally in stopping predators. They should be motivated to learn new tricks in a system that is much about doing things "by the book" even if the book hasn't been working in the past 100 years.We all would like to live in a better world. I don't think condeming those that are trying to make it a better place is the way to improve it. How does that motivate? How does that add to a better world?
Others may have had to endure deeper pain than I have.
Granted, they have made long strides in the way they handle cases, but I don't believe they are much further ahead because of the belief that the public should only be involved when they run out of leads or the case gets cold enough to warrant it. That thinking is stale and outdated. It hasn't worked on so many cases and yet they keep up the same guard.
Does it make sense to keep doing things which are not working?! It is not stopping these predators, but it is leaving them out there to keep reoffending! To me, that is unacceptable. There are many examples of cases being solved because LE included the public from the beginning in direct and clearly open dialog.
