Jodie's father, who was and FBI agent himself, had a profile on Vermouth until it was burned along w/ his house and his body. The only that survived along w/ Jodie was his glasses that had Vermouth's fingerprints on them when she had intended to put them on him to make his death not look like murder and the prints would've been destroyed had Jodie not appeared at the time she did and forced Vermouth into a situation where it would've been awkward had Vermouth not given the glasses to Jodie.

I think that stems from his ego, but he thinks he can handle things himself or that it won't hit close to home because of how "careful" he has been (or so it seems at least, I can't say for sure why he does that, I'm just making supposition based on what we know of his character). He seems to trust people just fine... He told Agasa, he basically spilled his guts to Heiji, told his parents everything (the only legitimate one, hell I'm surprised he didn't find a pay phone and call them when this first occurred... You'd think that would be the FIRST person (or in this case, people) to tell, especially when your father has connections and resources like Yuusaku. Why would you tell your eccentric neighbor who is always blowing up his house?) But on topic, there isn't much I actually like about Conan/Shinichi's character. He has no vices, he is overpowered in intelligence (even Holmes had to do research to know everything he did, and years of it. Holmes was a well respected person in the science field for what he did, despite not knowing certain things because it wouldn't benefit him), he has no ability to actually subdue a suspect when he catches him (and is in fact the only character without such skills, who is a detective or a police officer), his idealism is unrealistic and frankly grating, and his overconfidence is ASTOUNDING (I mean, I know you want to explain everything, but at least do so AFTER the suspect is been at least detained by police, or do it off to the side directly to Megure. Again comparing to Holmes, who LOVED theatrics, he wouldn't unravel his deductions until after the situation was under control. Not doing so allows for... problems, desperate people do desperate things. I really want Gosho to have something happen to him during a deduction, because if Shinichi pulls that with the BO, it is highly likely that either he, or someone else will die in the process.) So yeah... I really don't like Conan much... This is the only series that I have stuck with that I legitimately didn't like the main character, it is pretty amazing to be honest
