that's because there are very few masterminds on the other side of the fence.

The idea of a detective as per cop movies are romanticised, a lot of them are doing bare minimum and are as dumb as the criminals.

I had the misfortune of seeing this first hand. I caught an employee who embezzled $19,000 from my company red handed. The police refused to help even after I reported it until I called the mayor's office and complained.
But if you caught them red handed why are their hands not red? Case closed.
Now that's going all the way to the top!
