Insurance companies have a stronger incentive to see justice done than cops or elected prosecutors, who will often be satisfied as long as *someone* goes to jail.https://twitter.com/davidminpdx/status/1163550488102440960 …

I really don't think an insurance company is going to GAF if anyone goes to jail or not, so long as they can minimize claim payments & maximize income. After all, that's their business, literally. It helps if you can't sue them when they do fuck up & report you to the cops.

The insurance company is motivated to a) recover losses and b) avoid incurring losses in the future. Grabbing a random person and pinning the crime on them doesn't serve either purpose.

It's not random people. It's their customers. You're also assuming a crime is being committed. I don't imagine most claims are crimes.

The lead anecdote in the story is a guy whose truck was stolen. Investigators fucked up. Boy, that sure never happens with regular cops!

Of course cops fuck up all the time. Maybe they did investigate here, maybe they didn't (I'm not sure which is worse). The insurance company clearly paid for more investigation. The upshot was this guy was fucked, despite not committing the crime. What's your point?

My point is, a handful of horror stories and a bunch of innuendo doesn't constitute a convincing indictment.

It was, so to speak, for a bunch of cops and courts.
