Not for 20 Years!?

At the landlord/tenant agency in 1998, I believe I met some of the other civilians who were also involved in the police project. And my criminal matters took off from there! It has already been over 13 years. I hope the police aren't planning to keep me for a total of 20 years any more!? They missed me when I was 15 years old, although it seems a certain phase of their investigation began at that time. [Don't know exactly what they were doing!?] I've been working quite hard and we can look back in hindsight. In this day and age, it shouldn't take anybody 20 years to get their message across! (And if they're not satisfied, they should let me off the hook and find someone else maybe!?)
