You could pay the ransom, and get your boy back, or you could not pay and not get him...
Something wrong with the clip?
Quote
Police Chief Jim Backett:
You could pay the ransom, and get your boy back, or you could not pay and not get him back.
Charlie Telfer:
Or you could refuse to pay, and lose. Or you could refuse to pay, and you still get him back. You see, Stannard, the odds are still 2 to 1 in your favor.
David G. Stannard:
You mean my paying the ransom won't affect the odds of my getting him back at all? Then why pay? Why do people pay?
Police Chief Jim Backett:
It'd be easier for police if nobody did.
David G. Stannard:
What do you mean?
Charlie Telfer:
No ransom, no kidnapping racket, no profit margin.
