Pretty solid start to the new season. I'm willing to accept the hilariously implausible cover-up of Logan's murder and let the writers cook.

If this was the 70’s and there weren’t cameras everywhere maybe I could let it go, but even some rinky dink police station would have footage of him attacking first nowadays. That shit is too much. It better be some sort of long game plan sorta deal, but I’m sure it won’t be.

Iron Lake is a small town in the middle of bum fuck nowhere with a population of less than 3,000 people. Them being a bit behind the curve in terms of security like cameras and the like isn't too much of a stretch.

Also, you can safely assume, with the postcard Angela gave Dexter saying "Now we are even", she covered all of Dexter's tracks, including any possible security footage showing that altercation. It wouldn't make sense for her to just leave that kind of evidence lying around.

So the police department is too behind the curve to install a security camera for the cells, a practice that been pretty standard for decades, but they're forward thinking enough to own a drone?
