While I am sorry to hear about your wife's child, that is one of the most broad generalizations of bullshit I've heard.
If you or your wife brought 1/4 of that attitude into the police station, I would almost understand if they actually did nothing.
That's like blowing a tire on the trail and telling a stranger "Hey! get your lazy ass over here and change my tire!"
There's bad cops in probably every PD in the country, just like there are bad people in every profession (Hell, I met an elementary school teacher who didn't like children!!). Labeling them all that way is just ignorant.
you need to do some research on the gpd,that is one of the most corrupt police depts in NC,not just spouting off on that,i can go on and on about the fucked up shit that goes on in that dept,and my info is coming from people that actually go in to the dept and try to do their jobs,the det working our case is to involved with the racial problems going on inside the dept to put his effort on the case and when they tell you,OH WE'LL PROBABLY NEVER CATCH WHO DID THIS,i bet you would change your attitude also
