Why detective you shouldn have

In my experience detectives often get tunnel vision when they like a suspect for the crime they are investigating. When this happens, they hyper focus on one person and one theory of the case while ignoring other suspects and other evidence. You can see how this can cause problems for innocent people.

You can refuse to talk to a detective at any time. They will probably not leave you alone, but you do not have to talk to them; even if you're arrested see more on this below. Detectives and other police can legally lie to you.

They do it all the time. I have had many clients who were lured into the police station by a friendly detective and never walked out. They want you to come to the police station voluntarily and ultimately, they want you to confess. They will probably first attempt to get you to admit you were near or at the scene of the crime, which will only convince them further that you did it. Is everyone else understanding this endlessly confusing plotline?

Will I have to pretend to my colleagues at work that everything made sense, when Colin Farrell just got shot by a raven? Each week, households are taking a full two hours to watch 60 minutes of True Detective, because every scene needs to be rewound and watched again. Volumes are turned up so loud that the neighbours get upset. Old episodes are looked up on Wikipedia for clues.

Cults, fertility problems, PTSD, custody cases, gambling debts, drinking: you name it, someone on this show is going through it. Does … does anyone understand this show, or is Nic Pizzolatto sitting at home, laughing at us watching his nonsense? Key plot points are mentioned once, then thrown aside for another three episodes.
