Maybe she could have handled the situation better, but the police station is ultimately responsible for providing the wrong paperwork.

police station is ultimately responsible for providing the wrong paperwork.

Not really, the paper was privately given to the offender, while the offender gave the info willing to the girl, she spread it around and it let to his death.

Secondly, there is not always 1 responsible party, even if the police are responsible, she can be held responsible too.

If the paper had been correct and she hadn't spread it round she'd would have felt guilty of he'd then raped a kid.

If you have good reason to think someone is a paed you have a responsibility to pass that on.

Sorry that idea triggers you, maybe try to be less obvious in your paedo-ing.
