    Hrmm it’s almost like people may do stuff as a diversion and mislead people sometimes…,

      He bought a ladder to divert and mislead people who didn’t know what he was going to do?

        Yeah we get it, you’re not creative enough to think of anything. Yeah he bought a ladder and left it at another building to make it seem like something else maybe. I’m sure you can think of a couple dozen situations easily yourself.

        Common tactic dude. Do you really need diversions explained to you….?

          If he left it at another building, why didn’t they find it? They said they didn’t find it.

            Why’s that important? The thing is you need to follow every possible lead, which is real, which is diversion, you don’t know till you check.

            Take a break from the internet today dude, you’re already on the downswing.

            I gave you an example, I’m not expanding the story, I’m sorry you can’t comprehend that.

              When did this become about investigators following leads? This was about ABC reporting a detail that added nothing important to the story and the lack of it would have taken nothing important from the story.

                Investigators aren’t perfect, and yeah you don’t know what small detail is important toll investigators check. What’s wrong with journalists doing their own investigating? It actually has lead to results police/investigators missed before.

                We only know it’s not important in hindsight, it could still be important since they haven’t found it as you said. So you are making claims it’s not when we don’t even know yet….

                Yeesh dude.

                  This is also not about journalists doing investigating. This is about putting an unnecessary detail in a story.

                  Omitting unnecessary details is one of the first things you learn in a journalism class. It was not a necessary detail for the readers.

                    Did we know it was unnecessary at the time? Or only after the fact?

                    You’re putting future knowledge on the topic.

                    I’m sorry I must have been sleeping during that specific topic, but you must have been asleep during comprehension and understating class. And asleep during the tracking leads and being thorough part of the classes….

                    Don’t take shots that are way off base dude, even in journalism they teach to track down every lead as well. Again, the knowledge at the time was they didn’t know it was unnecessary, so to not include it could potentially be dangerous to the public as well.
