Ok, in this Casey Anthony trial, apparently the person who found the little girls remains had to report it at least 3 times before the police did anything. Why is it that police can be so apathetic when real crimes are presented to them? I have heard this quite a bit, where serious crimes such as murder, rape, and theft are not pursued at all by the police. What do they spend all of their time doing? Pulling over people for minor traffic violations of course! They would rather spend almost all of their time going after normal people who are not committing serious crimes, while real criminals get completely ignored. I believe this is because traffic violations are more easily prosecuted than more serious crimes. This is where cops get the bad reputation of being lazy and fuddling away their tax-paid salary, all the while they take even more money from normal people with frivolous driving tickets.

It's not excusable because Cronk's story was plausible and the location was believable. However, I understand WHY it happened. The case had national attention and they'd receive hundreds or thousands of calls each day, almost none providing a useful lead.

Cops did go to the area and search, but they were about 60' away from the part where Cronk saw something suspicious. I'm sure cops were already confident there were no remains if they'd been past the area with a canine already and the dog didn't alert.
 
i don't buy they had thousands a day so they couldn't check it out.

IT was within blocks of the house. For god sakes send a officer out and have him do a real check. it would have taken a few minutes.

They did do that. They probably did it half-heartedly because their dogs never alerted. Or, more likely, they didn't have any dogs because they were in use elsewhere (chasing other "leads"). Either way, they checked 60' away from where the body was.
 
Damn, I thought this was going to be a thread about an 80s rock band.

if they did a real search they would have found the body .there is NO excuse for them not looking.
