Note that it's not the police's job to think or not to think about motive - that's the job of the DA. For a reason - law degrees among other things.

Wrong. The police who investigate crime look at motive, means, and opportunity.  It's their job to follow the evidence. Not to make the evidence to fit some political agenda.

My impression is that mistakes are made when they settle on a suspect prematurely; then only look for evidence to make their case.

In this case, they know who did it. The young man confessed and told them why he did it. Apparently, some people who never talked to the guy think they know better. One blogger was even po'd that the police arrested him unharmed.

If this was Ted Cruz Smurph would have had an aneurysm
Cruz sold his soul to the devil and had a choice between perfect vision or not looking like Uncle Fester, he decided on the eyesight.

Police confessions, that hallmark of reliable evidence.

"He [Long] does make a full confession, and during that interview I did not hear anything about race ... other than us asking the question, although, we're not going to rule that out," Reynolds said during a Wednesday evening interview. "Obviously, we're going to continue this investigation and go off of every lead and every possible angle that we can, but it's still a little early to tell."

Reynolds previously told reporters that it was too early to say if the killings were racially motivated — "but the indicators right now are it may not be."

The core of the discussion went to motive. Some have jumped to the conclusion it might have been anti-Asian racism and misogyny. The police don't think so at this time.
The verbatim statement you posted from the police evidences indisputable misogyny and probable anti-Asian animus, or at least fetishization and objectification, which is a form of racism. How are you not seeing this?

Good point.

It’s more common than you might think. According to the National Registry of Exonerations, 27 percent of people in the registry who were accused of homicide gave false confessions, and 81 percent of people with mental illness or intellectual disabilities did the same when they were accused of homicide.

I am going out on a limb and guessing that is not an issue with the Atlanta spa murders. Looks like Robert Aaron Long is the perpetrator.

Yeah it’s a crazy fucked up world we live in. The guy does it, confesses to WHY he did it, and people are angry bcuz it doesn’t fit their political agenda and not the reasons they WANT it to be.

Quote
WASHINGTON — The Biden administration is restricting the information Border Patrol agents and sector chiefs can share with the media as a surge of migrants tests the agency's capacity at the southern border, according to four current and two former Customs and Border Protection officials.

The officials say the restrictions are seen as an unofficial "gag order" and are often referred to that way among colleagues. The officials requested anonymity because they are not authorized to speak to the media about the topic.

The bigger thing IlliniRay misses on this privilege thing - he keeps focusing on law enforcement.

But if you are Asian American, it's not just law enforcement, and how they treat a guy who shoots up a bunch of Asian massage parlors. It's that there are a lot of situations that might be beneficial to a person that they just avoid completely because of fear of racism.

Don't know why I'm even bothering with that crap take
