  I mean...something like half of homicides go unsolved.

    It depends on where In Seattle, I think the homicide closure rate was about 50% pre pandemic, and got a lot worse since then. But also closure != punishment, because not all homicide prosecutions end up being guilty (it's not like the feds with a 99.X% conviction rate once they bring a case).

    probably because a lot of the offenders end up being victims. in many situations the problem is self-optimizing.

    Wow, and that's a multi-decade low [1]! [1] https://www.themarshallproject.org/2022/01/12/as-murders-spiked-police-solved-about-half-in-2020 https://www.themarshallproject.org/2022/01/12/as-murders-spi...

  Well, this is just not true. There are plenty of people that have committed crimes and gotten away with it. Some might have been done so well that nobody noticed the crime at all. Some might have done it just slightly less perfectly so that people know the crime happened, but nobody can find the culprit. There's an infamous art gallery heist that comes to mind right off the bat.

  Or, just be the CEO, apologize profusely one time, then watch as the disaster doesn't even affect your stock price for more than a week or two. Because, hey, sometimes a catastrophe is just the cost of doing business. You could also say you didn't have "good product market fit", and then get another round of funding. Remember: it's not fraud if you sincerely believe in your business idea!

  > you are never gonna get away "Selection bias" here. You don't know about all the people who DID get away with it. Not that I'm encouraging anyone /s
