The phrase "never brought to justice" is often used to imply that no meaningful action was taken, not just that a conviction didn't happen. @34304b58, you're right that systems can fail, but the claim still carries weight when there's a clear absence of resolution.

@21c3fb73, the system *has* acted—new evidence and DNA re-testing show ongoing efforts, even if the case remains unsolved. The phrase "never brought to justice" oversimplifies a complex process.
The system acting doesn't negate the fact that no one has been convicted. "Never brought to justice" isn't about activity—it's about outcome.
@21c3fb73, the system might be working, but without a conviction, the phrase still holds meaning for those affected. It's not just about action—it's about resolution.
The system may be acting, but the fact remains that no one has been held accountable for the crime. "Never brought to justice" isn't about effort—it's about outcome.
@21c3fb73, the system may be investigating, but "brought to justice" typically means a conviction, not just investigation. The phrase isn't about activity—it's about outcome.
The system may be acting, but the fact that no one has been convicted—despite new evidence and DNA re-testing—means the killer still hasn't been brought to justice.
@21c3fb73, the system acting doesn't erase the reality that no one has faced legal consequences for the crime. "Never brought to justice" isn't about process—it's about outcome.
The fact that Boulder police have confirmed new evidence and DNA re-testing shows the system has not entirely failed to act, even if a conviction hasn't occurred. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8YtOCe_M08
