Good one, Jeet09.  I'll also add another question: why has the Canadian Association of Police Chiefs not provided a DOZENS of the investigators you describe to sit down with the lead editor and contributors to this series to relate those complications?  

I'd love to see a copy of the G&M's initial requests to police forces, too.  Bet some key questions were NOT asked.  I'll stop short of saying "on purpose." I'm not a conspiracy theorist. I'd say, instead, it is lack of foresight and experience on the part of the editors involved.
