    Medias and part of the public pay more attention to CEO’s welfare and wellbeing than random people’s wellbeing, making some crime even more high-profile.

    This put extra pressure on law enforcement to focus on some crimes at the expense of others. Police doesn’t exist in a vacuum.

    Police need to better protect average people, but this probably require both changes in police and in culture more broadly.

      Police shouldn’t exist exactly because of this. They cannot and do not care about the problems with society and just exist to enforce the law which doesn’t do anything to help society.

      They should be replaced with local community support instead and the good amount of saving the city or whomstever save should go to building things people actually need like third places and places folks can go to actually be safe.

      Even with the national media coverage, the amount of resources thrown at this case massively dwarfs what they have done for poorer victims.
