Does anyone else wonder if all these millions would have been spent pursuing Wood if Byrne had been as ugly as a hatful?
duno, that chick that went over the cliff on the "camping trip" with her husband was no oil painting??
In the Wood case the tie to Rivkin may have helped. The husband in the cliff one sounds like a wonderful chap.
The reason why they chased Wood so hard for so long was his attitude & deceit. The cops who led the case judged his attitude to be a signal of disdain for the investigation team and that he was above the law. They didnt like that at all.
It sounds like the investigation was pushed by someone in government who thought that it would make a good news story for the police if they could convict him.
