There is a well-known minor criminal in your rural county. Everyone is aware that he is engaged in a
variety of crimes, including burglary, fencing, and drug dealing. However, he also seems to be in the
good graces of your sheriff. There is an unspoken rule that he is off-limits, and when criminal
investigations uncover witnesses or other evidence that implicates his involvement, there is usually
subtle or not-so-subtle pressure to shift the focus of the investigations or drop it entirely. Is there
anything you can do?
