Someone is “pranking” Josie by putting false ads on Craigslist offering sexual favors. They rise above the prank level when she’s sexually assaulted and someone breaks into her home. Josie and her team weren’t able to determine who was behind these attacks. Were they that sophisticated or should they have sought help from other agencies (i.e., FBI, State AG’s office)?

The ads showed a level of sophistication beyond a normal prank ad. I thought they should have asked for help in getting to the bottom of it, but I understood why Josie wanted to keep it in house.

I agree with Anita. The ads were more than a prank. They needed help from another agency. Sometimes, Josie is a little hard headed.

Just a little?? Josie has great instincts but tends to be a lone wolf a lot of the time.

Once the pranks started escalating towards burglary and violence she should have gone to all the different agencies to help her find out who was doing all this.

Agree, Susan. I think Josie didn't want to appear weak, like she couldn't handle what was happening.

I didn't understand why she would sit on this info the way she did. Should've gotten help sooner.

This was nuts. Josie’s a bit stubborn and if she wasn’t the chief, that person would have enlisted help from whatever agency needed.

She isn't chief material. She is still working like a detective, and there isn't any supervision to discuss alternatives.

You know, that’s it exactly, Sharon. She’s still a detective.
