59. I'm not so worried about the exception in general.

I'm more worried about the individual suspect, and how he will be treated in a city that hates him. As written, the exception's not terrible. In practice, it will be very easy to use to cover other corner-cutting, I'm afraid.

And we'll never know, which makes the OP come across as willfully obtuse (never mind the holier-than-thou). That's a shame, because as far as it goes, the OP's correct.
