I am hopeful someone will come forward with information, which will lead to the eventual apprehension of the murderers involved in this case.

We're still very hopeful that someone out there will come forward and give us some information.

If he made commitments when running, he has to listen to them. I think having a dialogue with them is good — it's when you don't speak to people that it gets worse.

It's unfortunate, but we don't have any choice. We had a case here where an experienced detective made a mistake and the city and its taxpayers have to pay for it.

We're going to continue our investigation into how an experienced detective working homicide could let this happen. It really falls on negligence ... and it's costing the taxpayers over $1 million in sanctions.

Why should we pay if we're not culpable of anything? They're trying to hold the taxpayers responsible, and based on the media reports I've seen, there has been no link.
