I have no problem with the use of graphic footage and crime scene photos in a true crime documentaries, it's usually expected.

The problem with this is the clear bias of the director, nagging the police over and over about why they didn't go in earlier. He clearly does not know how police operations work, especially when there's no knowledge of exactly what is happening. There could have been hostages inside, it could have just been one robber, it was the 1980s so it's not like they had the same sort of Intel we would have now. He refuses to let it go, and inserts himself into a documentary of which he should be only behind the scenes.

I like true crime documentaries because they are normally properly nonfictional and outline something that has happened. Adding such an insane bias to it changed the responses of those being interviewed into constantly having to defend their decisions. He went out of his way to try to catch them with conflicting stories.

This could have been a great documentary, but it was ruined by terrible questions coming from a clear place of personal opinion.
