I'm not so sure. Giving the small-fry a break in order to catch the big criminals further up the food chain is not an unusual procedure, no matter who the small-fry's employer is.
But, as in all things, your mileage may vary, and I can respect someone who draws different conclusions with the limited information available to us.
