You jest, but there are literal serial murderers who weren't caught because they were friends with the police. There was one that was a manager of a fried chicken place and gifted free chicken to cops so much, that they were intimate friends and even had them over for social visits to the place where they buried the bodies and the cops kept him informed about insights about the investigation of his own crimes. They never suspected a damn thing.

I'm assuming they were eventually caught though? Otherwise we couldn't know this story.

Either that or the parent poster is admitting to something...

For legal reasons, I'm talking about John Wayne Gacy.

Pretty sure this is just a sub plot on breaking bad

Jeffrey Dahmer, except the kid had escaped and the cops gave him back to Dahmer.

While he was running naked through the street, bleeding out of his ass, and crying for help. It’s so unbelievably fucked.

That kid looks like Charlie Brown, but w/o his black zigzag shirt.

This is essentially the premise to Insomnia.
