*******SPOILERS********
When Affleck is in police custody after the cop dies, the first thing we hear him say is "why would I blow the whistle on a conspiracy that I'm a part of?" Then we find out that the recorded phone call does not exist and that the transcript was fake. At this point were you supposed to think that Affleck was being set up all along and that he was going to take the fall?
They had him read the transcript aloud and record it so that it would seem like he himself was asking for ransom money, they sent the girl's blanket to his address, etc. I didn't quite follow this...Affleck says that he "must have remembered wrong" and they let him go on his way. If he had pressed the issue would he have been in danger of being arrested for the crime?

I think he let it go because he realized that Doyle (Morgan Freeman) had set him up...not to take the fall, but to believe the police record incoming phone calls so that he'd be an unwitting accomplice to Cheese's murder, as well as the final abduction and fake death of Amanda.
I did have a problem with him putting those pieces together so quickly - I woulda been like, "The goddamned Chief of this Division told me the phone call was recorded and he had me read it aloud...oh, wait."
