Well, I mean you didn't provide /any/ examples, you stated something false.
My point was more that this "battle of wits" cops vs robbers narrative is just Hollywood nonsense.
Do you feel the same about MI6/GCHQ (organisations staffed to a large degree by Cambridge grads) vs ISIS (an organisation staffed mainly by idiots and conspiracy theorists)?
Clearly the two sides are not playing the same game, and any disparity in ability will be completely overwhelmed by structural differences in their respective challenges.
The uninformed opinion you're spreading is damaging because it implicitly implies that these crimes wouldn't happen if only our cops were a bit brighter.
If only they were as clever as those City boys! Too bad old chap, better luck next time, all's fair in love and war etc etc.
