    No because they don’t even bother with any case that can’t be cleared pretty much immediately, even if that means declaring obvious cases of murder as suicides or accidents. In criminal investigations accuracy is the most important metric not speed or even severity of the crime. You could pay based on conviction rates of course, but whether a conviction happens or not is often more about how stupid the criminal or prosecutor is, and would potentially incentivise faking evidence which is already a problem.
