i guess you're right but it doesnt mean they're any less iron-fisted...

oh yes i completely agree with you! they just want to make sure they have a water-tight case before proceeding further.

when someone is brought in a third time to the police station i think the word 'questioning' isn't a very accurate description of what's going on any longer...
