I don't doubt it! But it does help illustrate my point - we don't consider it out of order to send our own police to investigate. Does that mean we think we're better than them?

If they did dismiss them, then that adds some justification to those who think they aren't up to it, and gives me comfort that British police are involved. It would be gross incompetence to dismiss anything at a crime scene on first appearances. Only after rigorous forensic testing is complete can anything be dismissed.
