IMAGINE THIS: John Doe, a known murderer kills your entire family
But first, imagine he had sent you a letter, stating he was going to kill your family.
You report the threat to the chief of police who... promptly goes on vacation and assigns no one to investigate.
Imagine you find your family murdered, and the entire hideous crime is caught on a security camera, which reveals the murderer to be, none other than John Doe.
Imagine the chief of police vowing on television, for the cameras, to bring your family's killer to justice.
But instead of pursuing their killer, he focuses all of his attention on catching shoplifters at the local WalMart.
Imagine the police chief is running for re-election, and on the eve of the election, John Doe appears at your door, taunting you because he has gone unpunished.
QUESTION: Do you vote to re-elect the chief of police?

Seems like the letters were ignored by the police chief who had the job previously, as well. All that happened with him was shooting rubber bands at a tent.
