At that point shouldn't they be out collecting more evidence they can use in court?

are you serious?

They say a paper trail detailing every account is inadmissible and testimony from close to 30 people isn't enough to convict and you think they should just dig around for more evidence?

So the trick to getting away with murder in panama is to make sure the smoking gun everyone saw you use is turned in to police by the person who calls in the crime without your permission.
