I'm not defending CPS. I'm stating facts that anyone can find or reason out, if they felt inclined to.

I've also not had a problem with folks remembering that I tend to lean "pro-emergency services".

Haha, totally forgot about him. *L*

Guess it's a good thing I try to give folks the benefit of the doubt. Everyone's job sucks in the court of public opinion.

Unfortunately for the Crowshoe family, and any other capable adult who went missing, it might have been simply been bad timing. Limited resources and a hefty chunk being used on the investigation of the disappearance/murder of a a 5 year old. In Crowshoe's case there didn't even seem to be any evidence to indicate foul play until the discovery of the body.

Even though the Liknes case did take a considerable amount of resources, I don't know how much more they truly could have/should have done for this case. The individual was 18, had no physical/mental/psychological disabilities, and is therefore not a huge risk.

Police cant take the same approach to every missing person that they take with cases like the Liknes family or high risk missing persons. Simply due to the sheer number of missing cases they get every day.
