Wizard,

I know it's a relatively small point, but that strains the normal limits of police incompetence.

The guy steals his father's gun and shoots him with it. This clearly isn't a suicide. He flees the scene with his one year old kid and the weapon. Somebody will have noticed either him going into the house or going out, probably both. If the cops don't pick him up and run a paraffin test on him, they're stupid.
