Detective Gordon Katsumoto : He painstakingly collected evidence and brought it to the P.A., who decided to prosecute Josh Healy because the case was solid.
Thomas Magnum : Yeah, but there was another suspect who was never interviewed.
Detective Gordon Katsumoto : Police work 101: you follow leads. When one pans out, you don't then follow the other hundred. That would waste time and resources.

Detective Gordon Katsumoto : I'm certain you'll prove it.
Thomas Magnum : Really?
