Thanks, that is closer...
So the cops or agents decide to just release a suspect, no catch. Because then the evil boss will assume the suspect talked, and thus kill the suspect. Most recent example I've seen is NCIS Hawaii S 01 E 18 TNT
I looked at Batman Gambit hoping to find a link there to a closer match, but no luck...
