Hello and welcome to Real Crime Profile. This is Jim Clemente Retard, a PROFILER former New

Accident Prosecutor and Writer Producer on CBS's Criminal Minds. And with me today, Electronically is.

Well, we're all electronic today via Zoom. It's Laura Richards and I'm former Head of the Homicide Prevention Unit and you

Scotland Yard Criminal Behavioral Analyst and Founder of Paladin National Stalking Advocacy Service.

And I am Lisa Zambetti. I am the casting director for CBS's Criminal Minds. I have absolutely no law enforcement credentials, but I do a damn good job casting them on television.

I'll have you know. There you go. So we are deep into our coverage of the case of the disappearance of Madeline McCann.

And I think we were talking about Operation Grange. Operation Grange, yes, where we left off. And just before we dive in, just to say to all of our listeners that we are deep diving,

the disappearance of Madeline McCann and we will look at and examine every hypothesis. So the very fact that Kate and Jerry were made,

our guidos means that it's something that we need to look at as to what was the evidence for the Portuguese police to interview them and interrogate them as our guidos.

So we still have a lot more to say about the case itself. And yes, Operation Grange have been back in the news again because with the anniversary coming up of the disappearance of Madeline McCann,

it's been 12 years and Madeline would now be 16 years old. We've seen the Operation Grange have applied for more funding.

So they had funding actually in October last year, 150,000 extra pounds from the home office. And Jim and Lisa, you may not know, but at the home office there's sort of a special grants fund that police forces can apply for in exceptional circumstances.

And that's really what they've been funded by. So to date, it's cost around 11.75 million pounds.

Wow. And some operation. And I just want to give you a context to that because, you know, for one murder to be investigated as a former head of homicide prevention, I had to look at what the cost was.

And so that one average murder and of course Jim, you know, there's no such thing as an average murder. So we've got to take it as something that's in the middle.

So it would cost in 2007 about 1.54 million to investigate a murder. So that's pre trials. That's not anything, including the trial aspect.

And that's like for the entire investigation, soup to nuts, everything.

Bar the trial. So, so yeah, so obviously that would be an additional cost. And so present day, it would probably be around 2 million.

So 2 million pounds, you know, to attend a domestic violence call out is it's in the ballpark of about 1000 pounds.

Now, when we look at the fact that the domestic violence murder rate is increasing. And when we consider the fact that police are saying that they don't have the resources, particularly in London, where domestic

and domestic violence is a very common size of significantly increased. And they're saying they haven't got the resources to keep people safe.
