This was probably one of the easiest crimes to prosecute and yet it’s fallen off a cliff and everyone knows why.
There is less chance of gaining trust than there is a prosecution because, after all, the star witness (the gunman) was conveniently removed from the equation. I recall the media frenzy at the time when a very senior officer said the police would take the gunman (prime witness) dead or alive.
Regain trust????? What a hollow, throw away statement. My, yet to born, great great grandchildren will be dead before we see any trust issues resolved and I still don’t have children yet.
