An example I found is: "Expressing a particularly cynical but telling point of view, one detective is quoted as saying in a 1996 article by Richard A.

So you can see what sort of attitude this detective has towards people suspected of a crime, before they are even charged, tried and either convicted or found innocent! nona the brit Joined on Wed, Sep 22 2004 England Veteran Member 11,713 The name says it all.
