I’ll have to done the Devil’s Advocate robes for a sec and note that Buck is right…to a point. Under SYG, you basically have to confirm that a suspect is guilty of a crime before you can even arrest him and begin a serious investigation. So you have to spend time disproving his story, time he has to destroy evidence that you can’t collect off him, time to get his story straight, and time for a lawyer to begin muddying the water.

Under this law you cannot actually even detain a person without a probable cause - and he was detained. Again, the lead investigator also thought there was a probable cause. It’s meddling from the higher-ups that prevented the arrest. He could be arrested even under SYG.
