Detective Shaw, being former military, tells Cosgrove they should not arrest someone at the funeral for a military veteran because they deserve respect. However Shane Risner was dishonorably discharged from the Army, meaning he lost all his military rights including the right to a military funeral and the right to be treated with the respect due to a veteran. Someone who used to be in the military would know this. Plus Cosgrove had a very good point, they did not know the intentions of the murder suspect, procedure would have called for them to take him into custody right away.

The Colonel's shadow box contained two Distinguished Service Crosses (including the one that was stolen) and two Bronze Star Medals.
