I think the problem with this case was that the police suffered from tunnel vision, they got it into there minds that Stagg was guilty and stopped looking elsewhere. I totally agree if there was a data base, Stagg would not have had his life ruined and the right man would have been where he belonged, behind bars and another two lives would have been saved.
