You&#x27;re really on to something with parallel construction.<p>Using Palantir they can map all the celltower data, etc, to find people who are present at the place and time of multiple crimes. But they don&#x27;t want to explain all this in court.<p>So they sit Constable Collins down with the video footage to parallel reconstruct evidence for the jury. And the PR department then decides to turn him into a super-hero with mythical powers, to further the cover.<p>That makes a lot more sense to me.
