<p>Because of the need to preserve evidence, the Minneapolis I35W bridge collapse is being compared to a crime scene.  Of course, they do not mean that it is a crime scene in terms of sabotage being the cause.  But I would say that it actually is a crime scene.  The crime was the criminal negligence of failing to carry out the proper prescribed inspections that are intended to prevent the bridge from collapsing.  </p><p>This may be considered to be a rush to judgment because the cause of the collapse is not known.  However, MNDOT officials have admitted that they failed to properly inspect the bridge due to the location of welds, plates, and bolts that are within inaccessible pockets.  And that failure to inspect ought to be a crime even if the bridge does not fall down. It is beginning to look like the politicians really don't care if a bridge falls down.  They'll just blame it on the pigeons, and exploit the disaster to leverage a tax increase.  And it is beginning to look like the citizens of Minnesota are going to fall for this smokescreen.</p>
