I like when true crime podcasters eventually come to terms that the police is between inept to malicious and often won't actually solve anything. Sometimes it's the community that solves the crime, sometimes one good apple who insists on it and works against his own superiors. Sometimes the murderer is a policeman, sometimes the murderer is friends with the police. Often the police as an institution just makes a note, sometimes before the crime happens, and ignores it until it becomes too big to ignore. It's ridiculous seeing so many true crime episodes come to similar conclusions about the police. And since most true crime is american due to america's lack of privacy regulations, the way the police treats black people is also insane.
