Not the Law and Order bullshit you have all grown so fond of.
Not CSI. Not Miami. The real deal.
A veteran Chicago homicide detective pours his heart out on Craigslist in the “rants and raves” section, and it is a fascinating read.
“I’ve doing it for several years. I can think of roughly a dozen cases in the last three years that wrapped up in a nice tidy package. Until this year, the unit I work in averaged about 170 murders a year.”
“I always think of a confession as going to a bar and trying to get a beautiful woman who has no interest in you to agree to a one time hook-up. It’s really a twisted romance. You talk for hours and hours about meaningless shit, all the time trying to bring the offender back to the murder.”
“Never trust a detective who dresses like one of those TVcharacters”.
