Why set up this kidnapping bureau? Are they still the police?

The film is a good one, and the ending is very tangled. Maybe everyone doesn't know how to choose, but what I want to say is, why is this kidnapping board necessary? Amanda’s uncle knew through the poorly soundproofed room that Amanda’s mother Helen was selling drugs and hiding money for "cheese", and told the news to Remy, Jack and others. Jack and the others should only be police officers. Collect evidence, get justice, bring Helen and the drug dealers to justice, and send them to jail. At this time, American social welfare agencies will intervene. Amanda is no longer suitable for her mother to raise, and adopt her through formal channels. ,Is not it good? There is no need to “framing” the father who abused the little boy as Remy said before to get the little boy out of his father’s upbringing. Helen didn’t need to frame her, it was indeed a crime! Or they can’t be adopted. Amanda’s uncle and aunt can raise her. Why is it so complicated? Set up this kidnapping bureau to get Amanda’s right to support?

Patrick Kenzie: I'm calling state police in five minutes. They'll be here in ten.
Capt. Jack Doyle: Thought you would've done that by now. You know why you haven't? Because you think this might be an irreparable mistake. Because deep inside you, you know it doesn't matter what the rules say. When the lights go out, and you ask yourself "is she better off here or better off there", you know the answer. And you always will. You... you could do a right thing here. A good thing. Men live their whole lives without getting this chance. You walk away from it, you may not regret it when you get home. You may not regret it for a year, but when you get to where I am, I promise you, you will. I'll be dead, you'll be old. But she... she'll be dragging around a couple of tattered, damaged children of her own, and you'll be the one who has to tell them you're sorry.
Patrick Kenzie: You know what? Maybe that'll happen. And if it does, I'll tell them I'm sorry and I'll live with it. But what's never gonna happen and what I'm not gonna do is have to apologize to a grown woman who comes to me and says: "I was kidnapped when I was a little girl, and my aunt hired you to find me. And you did, you found me with some strange family. But you broke your promise and you left me there. Why? Why didn't you bring me home? Because all the snacks and the outfits and the family trips don't matter. They stole me. It wasn't my family and you knew about it and you knew better and you did nothing". And maybe that grown woman will forgive me, but I'll never forgive myself.
Capt. Jack Doyle: I did what I did for the sake of the child. All right. For me, too. But now, I'm asking you for the sake of the child. I'm begging you. You think about it.

Beatrice McCready: It's not that, Lionel.

Beatrice McCready: She's a cunt!
Lionel McCready: Beatrice, don't use that word.
Beatrice McCready: God help me, it's true.
