Martin:

I really did mean criminal in the context I was talking about.
I was talking about the point of view of the police. They don't
want to convict every suspect (they're not THAT one-sided), just
every criminal. They don't lose when a suspect gets off, only when
a criminal does. But I agree that the word "criminal" is subjective,
particularly in cases where no conviction is obtained.
