Not all crime is premeditated and most people aren't described as criminals.

i had an LEO [homocide] tell me that most murders are committed in a less than thinking state of mind, and solved in about 15 minutes.
I would assume this LEO works in a relatively low-crime area. I know that where I am most murders remain unsolved and and the shootings that I’ve witnessed appear to be premeditated.
i have a feeling this may be related to prevalence of 'willing" witnesses.
Wtf is "homocide" though?
it is the key right next to homicide on the keyboard.
