I'm a university cop?
At minimum, Kevin does not appear to be very curious. If I was chasing down a gunned abduction and someone said they were a "medical cop" I would at least ask if they were at TT for the same thing. And assuming I'm buying the medical cop job description, it would seem like he would be mobilized for medical treatment FOR JW
How'd the "new cop" know to escort the wetterlings?Kevin never knew about the abduction of Jacob until later that night when the gf's brother called him and told him Jacob had been abducted. (At least that's what he told Joy.) So he wouldn't have known a gunned abductor was involved. But now you made me curious about what exactly was said on the scanner. I've never thought about that before, but don't dispatcher's generally try to be rather vague in case the public is listening in? Because if they had said "abduction at Wetterlings" or maybe just a fire number?? you'd think Kevin, being local, would have known where to drive to. But instead, by the time they got in the cars and followed where they had seen cop cars go, they first went to the Del-Win ballroom thinking maybe something had happened there, and then went out 91st/16th and didn't see anything. The brother and his wife turned and went home according to Kevin's story. If Kevin and company thought it was something happening at the Del-Win, they may not have even said "abduction" on the scanner. Maybe they just said "all cars report to emergency"??

Wasn't Kevin a student and his gf was the local? Do we know for sure the cop was there to escort the Wetterlings? Or was he watching for a car with a small child in it??

Here's what Kevin told Joy about the scanner:
"......ready to go when they heard something come across the police scanner. (The girlfriend’s mom always kept the scanner on in the background.) They hadn’t been listening closely, but thought they had heard something about kids, some bikes, Tom Thumb, and possibly a mask."

So why is Kevin not a POI?
Because DR is in this together with LE as a strategy to bring him or Feeney down.
And your reference for this is?
