As I understand kidnapping, murder laws, etc.,

...parents are dependent upon local community law enforcement agencies, such as the Austin Police Dept. here, as first-line defense in investigation.

Lawyers -- is this correct?

Detectives are assigned to work each case.

And is it true that the FBI becomes involved in kidnapping cases?

Not homicide, though. Correct?

Perhaps I read too many great fictional authors in this genre (two are John Sandford and Robert Tanenbaum, Ed McBain from years past) ... but I rather imagine that some sorts of 'torture' might be involved in shaking info out of suspects.

Is this new?

Are laws that condone physical torture necessary?

(Hey: forget that I ask this if it provokes five days of 'objective discussion' among the 'moderates,' okay? I won't read it.)
