#burke

i haven't read all of the cases in harry's ledger yet but the unsolvable case has been bothering me ever since i went through it. like i assure you, i understand that harry's been struggling for a long time, that leslie/burke were stubborn creeps and this stopped the complaints about them but i will never reconcile with the notion that a cop beating someone to the point of unconsciousness and permanent disablement was the only way it could be done. i just won't. the end justifies the means, they say, but does it really? does it?
