hey, i know people are caught committing crimes everyday and most are caught either in the act or because witnesses see them.

but how are flawless crimes solved?

say someone robs/kills another person at 1am in pitch black darkness and no witnesses. how do the cops get the criminal then? do the police find a suspect and does the suspect manage to get himself in trouble?

what do you think occurs when the police have next to know idea in a case but still manage to get a guy?

actually most people get caught because they talk about what they did, or they leave evidence at the scene. Witness identifications are considered quite unreliable by the courts.

What Spliffing said - they talk.

A "flawless" crime doesn't end at the scene - you have to be smart enough not to tell anyone about what you did, no matter how much you trust them.

Some people get caught on unrelated crimes (eg speeding) and somehow end up admitting to a previous crime, I'm not sure how they do that to themselves though.

First of all " A perfect crime is accomplished only when someone else is being getting cought instead of the real criminal."

Secondly, those who get cought are all assholes. Only well thought crimes in order to get extremely rich are committed by intelligent mentally sane people.

Thirdly, today in a modern civilized world any intelligent person is able to make profit staying away from crimes, so any criminal is an asshoel today.

This explains tht aanyone who get cought is the asshole of all assholes who are committing crimes today.
