I have no qualms about pointing out the ignorance or incompetence of others, and people can become resentful at being made to feel inadequate.

Some also incorrectly view me as an amateur. They wonder why a civilian would take such an interest in criminal investigation and mistake my enthusiasm for the challenge of it as something other than what it is. It doesn't help that there were a few occasions where I was able to discern things that only the killer would know, because of my intellect and expertise.
