A sloppy investigation does not change the crime.

Only the resulting sentence.
Sometimes.

It doesn't change events, it changes the outcome. Most of the time to the 'guilty' walking becuase reasonable doubt is introduced or misconduct in - Will Hunting May 13, 12:46 11
- See, your IM only sets up them bringing the hammer down when it continued. -- nm - Spawn May 13, 12:51 10
  - No, my IM tells me that the NFL had very little reason to care about this crime and the punishment isn't consistent for all. - Will Hunting May 13, 12:53 8
    - Then they would not have sent a warning message out. -- nm - Spawn May 13, 12:58 5
      - It's been known for years you can't manipulate the balls; these teams did anyhow. No punishment. - Will Hunting May 13, 13:02 4
        
        You can't go from a memo to an historic punishment and call it reasonable. -- nm - Spawn May 13, 13:03 3
        
        ... I call that perfectly reasonable. Now, if there had been no warning and then they did, I would agree. -- nm - Spawn May 13, 13:04 2
        
        There was warning...the first 2 teams got nothing....the next team got hammered with a monster penalty. - Will Hunting May 13, 13:05 1
        
        No, first guy gets a warning and that news is spread. Next violation gets the hammer. That is how it works. -- nm - Spawn May 13, 13:10
    - this is a professional sports league, that is run like a kids T-Ball league. - groiny May 13, 12:56 1
      - And it'll all be excused by saying they made billions. So does Apple under Tim Cook; it doesn't make him a better CEO than Steve Jobs was. -- nm - Will Hunting May 13, 12:57
  - it was such a monumental cheat, that when they noticed at halftime, they let him finish out the game. nm -- nm - groiny May 13, 12:52
Actually that's pretty much exactly opposite in a criminal setting. The sloppy investigation may result in dismissal of the case or at least certain - pmb May 13, 12:45
