There is a WORLD of difference between politely and candidly saying, "We are still working on gathering sufficient evidence to prosecute" and saying, as the KCSO did in this case, that the killers were "good Samaritans" - even after the officers were well aware that this was decidedly NOT the case.
Also, the former statement would be false, as they failed to even question the key witnesses for months after the incident. This was not a case of insufficient evidence; it was a case of insufficient effort.
