....this "shot spotter" crap?
Even if it managed to beat a cell phone caller to the punch (which it hasn't);
Even if it managed to beat a cell phone caller to the punch (which it hasn't);
AND police actually arrived on the scene within moments of the shots being fired (which has happened without shot spotter)
AND the program was able to determine an actual fixed address where the shots originated from (we have no idea of the software is that integrated);
...without actually seeing the shots coming from a house, does anyone realistically believe that we're just going to start kicking in doors and ransacking homes/apartments looking for the gun and/or shooter?
In this day and age?
With the amount of punitive damages and such being assessed against officers?
With the number of officers at callback?
With the brass we have in place who wouldn't back their own mother in a parking lot fender-bender?
And even if we did, without the gun being in the hand, let alone the same room as the suspect shooter, does anyone really think Anita is going to charge anyone with the felony?
That sound you hear is millions of dollars being flushed down the toilet - again. Millions that could hire more actual officers.
