The murderers were brilliantly competent with access to dangerous (and dangerous to transport) radioactive materials; at the same time, they made an utter and complete pigs ear of transporting the mere fraction of a gram (the size of a pin head) substance that can be rendered inert by a suitable coating eg wrapping in tin foil to prevent alpha particles and placing in an air tight container to protect from the 'sputtering' effect. But people do hold these contradictory thoughts in their heads at the same time: incredible.

The former could've been detected by, for example, ion chromatography (Dionex do a nice model) or Atomic absorption (take care with that acetylene flame). Similarly for polonium (and its characteristic pattern of decay isotopes), yet ... were is the evidence?
