They do when it turns out that a serial killer was in that line. Tracking exactly what that killer did leading up to the killing spree would be very interesting to them.

But it's very hard to track 1 person retroactively. Unless, of course, there's a nation-wide surveillance system in place.

I'm not advocating for it. I'm just saying that the parent is correct in that historians would love this information.
