Compassionate Policing

Much to Georgina's horror, Jack starts asking Lucy Finch, the wife of a missing person, some very odd questions about the physical side of the relationship with her husband, refers to him in the past tense and then tries to make amends by fabricating crime statistics. Even worse Jack thinks he's demonstrating compassionate policing.
