Yeah, that sort of reporting makes you really wonder how credible the media is. Up here in Canada, there was a case that the police didn't want certain evidence to get out as it would make it more difficult to track the person. They'd be aware that the police had uncovered something & could compensate. Still, it didn't stop the media from blabbering about it.
But then there's the times that police haven't let women or parents know about something that's happening in their neighbourhood so they could try to protect themselves better. It's not until some more women & children are assaulted before the police finally release the details. A little late for those hurt or killed.
I don't know enough of the facts to form a judgement of what's said most times. And it gets harder & harder to know who to believe, doesn't it?
