Police withhold specific information as a general rule so if someone confesses or offer details they will know if they are telling the truth.

Assuming cops in Idaho are super sleuths.

I mean, that's basic police procedure. You mainly here about it when they fuck it up, not when they pull the technique off successfully.

Yes when a family member was murdered the police lied to the press about how many times he was shot. Which led me to believe crimes are probablyalways worse than you think. It's not nearly as easy to kill people as it looks on television (I went to a support group for families of victims and that's my takeaway.)
