    So while I am sure the expense per person is more. Expense for rich murders vs poor murders is probably the opposite simply because of the difference in quantity.

      I think the point is that “rich vs poor” should not be a distinction that matters when considering what resources to expend on the investigation.

      If you start from that premise, there’s really no reason to compare what is spent collectively on the murder of wealthy people to what is spent collectively on the murder of poor people.

      The comparison itself assumes as given that there is some reason to divide the victims in that way.
