Well, they tailed him for months ? 24/7 and he did nothing.
Then they got tons of other suspects to look at. We have seen some of them here. There was the guy who had his car taken apart, for instance.
Then there was the kidnapper who actually came later--Kevin with his tire tracks. Ooops. Lots of time spent on that.
We do not know about Kevin's tracks. We do not know how they stacked up next to Heinrich's. Just that they were after.
They had thousands and thousands of info to go through. People died and retired.
Hopefully with computers, there is much better way to access things than reading through thousands and thousands and thiusands of pages of paper, not to say getting court orders, checking out suspects such as the Stearns Truth Tapes. How many hours and how much manpower did that take?
Read about what technology that had back then. There were no lists of pervs, either. Nightmare
