[QUESTION] Stupid_cop's treatment of Jan makes no sense...?

[improvius]

They take her to the police station because they have a lab that can run tests on her.

its got to be more than that, i agree with sfsdfd... the MP's questioned her, then just turned her over to a regular cop for questioning... if she did all that, you'd think they would keep her in custody for a while until they got some answers

plus, she is connect six ways to sunday. She is Dwayne's friend, so Frank might be inclined to take it easy on her and her "dad" is SSF.

Not too mention they seem almost amused at her antics. Seem more concerned that the power glitch up their security state. While on post, it does not seem that she was in a very sensitive area.

"The MP's only brought her here because we have a lab on site."

That answer is good enough for me. If you want to dwell on this, go ahead. But I think you're wasting your time on something that the script clearly addresses.

I see a common assumption here; that the girl/woman leaping from the top of the building is Jan. Unless I've missed something crucial (entirely possible, I'm way behind here) I don't see any proof for that.

The resolution to all these behavioural absurdities is to assume that either Jan is not the intruder mentioned in the security alert, or that Jan is but that the interrogation happens before the big spectacular Trinity-jump thing.

Let's see where that takes us in the story...

They might have gone easy for 2 reasons. As mentionned, her father was "up there" in military grades, and an important reason is that she passed a lie detector test saying 1) she was drunk and 2) it was a dare. According to the lie detector result, she didn't want to do anything bad in the military facility, she was just doing it to impress some friends. Even though she was lying, the lie detector didn't catch it. So the combination of those 2 factors probably prompted the police to not act on the case.

But, I also believe this is just a minor thing and shouldn't be picked up on.

Actually, its not really that strange. In the long run, did she steal anything? Destroy anything? Resist arrest? No, she fully cooperated when the sentry caught up to her. The military members were just following protocol. The treatment of her makes sense to me, as in the long run, all she did was jump off of a building.
