Is it? Its quite clearly a media ploy. Friday afternoon PC means the Saturday papers will have their story on the front page.

Anyone here believe Greenspan's retired detectives are better than modern TPS detectives?
I sure dont
Do you believe they're churning out the same quality of employees now, as they used to in the past?Anyone here believe Greenspan's retired detectives are better than modern TPS detectives?

Well, look up when the last Greenspan news release was. Saturday papers. Coincidence I guess. Not!ROFLOL! Andreww, you are too funny. Thanks for the laugh, seriously.
Does Klatt even have access to the evidence police collected? I highly doubt it.Do you believe they're churning out the same quality of employees now, as they used to in the past?
Hard to find newspaper daily numbers for Toronto, but this UK article pretty much tells the story...ROFLOL! Andreww, you are too funny. Thanks for the laugh, seriously.
If you had something to share with the public, would you choose to hold your press conference in conjunction with publishing on the highest readership day, or a different day? Just doh.Well, look up when the last Greenspan news release was. Saturday papers. Coincidence I guess. Not!
What on earth does the public have to do with anything? Maybe, if they were truly interested in solving this thing, they should be siting down with TPS. People on this forum are delightful, they seem to believe anything that is fed to them.If you had something to share with the public, would you choose to hold your press conference in conjunction with publishing on the highest readership day, or a different day?

I think the policemen/women of yesteryear were better suited, in many ways, for the job.
The retired detectives may well be better than some of the newer lot.

What you have to remember is that those Detectives that were around prior to the mid 90’s ( when DNA became a tool to utilise to ID suspects ) they had to rely on good Detective work because other than fingerprints, there was not the proliferation of CCTV cameras available to give us clues like there are today along with DNA and other modern technology.
Old school Detectives had to know how to speak to people and cultivate informants in order to get the information they required and they really had to work hard to solve a crime . Some of the investigative tools that were used back then, today’s Detectives wouldn’t even think to consider because they are much more reliant on gaining evidence from CCTV DNA et al
However, I personally believe that because of the technological and forensic science advances, convictions nowadays are much less likely to be declared ‘unsafe’ because of the irrefutable evidence offered by the modern way of investigation .
There’s good and bad in all but the best Detectives are the ones that are willing to consider all possibilities, discount none without proof to the contrary, work as a team bouncing ideas off of each other and know how to speak to and engage with the community that they serve. The rest, fingerprint, DNA, CCTV and other means of securing evidence in today’s times, are a bonus !
I speak as a Detective of many years standing
If we are going to compare old detectives to new detectives, lets not forget about the Paul Bernado debacle. He was reported to detectives by a battered girlfriend. Nothing. He was reported by a friend who realized he was a dead ringer for the police sketch. Nothing. And he had two detectives sit down with him in his living room in Port Dalhousie. Nothing. And this was probably the biggest case in the history of Southern Ontario! Not exactly inspiring confidence.

"The bodies "were on the steps leading to the pool," he told CBC News.
"What's with these rich people ... who does this?" he recalled thinking. He says neither he nor his clients decided to enter the pool area to take a closer look.
The agent says he and his clients thought they had stumbled across some kind bizarre Halloween display or a joke.
"Fake murders," is how he initially described it.
They soon left the property, refusing to believe what they saw inside the multimillion-dollar home could actually be real.
Not long after, it's believed the other agent called 911 to report the find.'
