Prolific Offenders List

Post by Brushy Bill »

In the spirit of banding together against crime, maybe we need an app to help each other identify trouble makers 'known to police' , the description used so often in media reports these days. Repeat criminals of property crimes keep harassing the public, its time to turn the tide and make life difficult for them.
Pictures, names and addresses, with updates to movements and locations.
Someone is sure to come on and say this would be an invasion of privacy but afaiac the bg's loose their right to privacy when they become a terror to a neighbour.

They publish pictures of the "Most Wanted" so what about the "Most Unwanted".

Seems fair to me.
My Wife asked me if I knew what her favorite flower was?
Apparently "Robin Hood All Purpose" was the wrong answer!

The once was talk of posting up 'Johns' in an attempt to curb pay-for-sex
and any molester gets out of jail and his name is all over the news
afaiac repeat offenders of property crimes are far more offensive to a community
People should know who the bad neighbours are

"Only seven of 17 prolific offenders are in custody, so we have seen a property crime increase," she said.

"Break and enters are almost twice the national average. Cocaine trafficking is four times the national average, and that's troubling. I'm constantly getting feedback from merchants that things are going to hell."

It's not that the police are condoning it. The police are like doctors, they call "doing nothing" aswaiting. Sooner or later, and if they wait long enough, The problem will surface and then it can be excised, without having to go look for it.

I'm not saying the police are condoning it, they only work within the laws which seem to be controlled by the courts.

Could anyone provide any reference or evidence to support that accusation? Please?
If it is "known", then there should be something of evidence to support the opinion of "known".
If it was "known", then why is there no mention of that known fact in the Castanet article?

There are so many unknowns here.

Read about a new crime fighting app on CBC recently:

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/edmonton/lightcatch-grande-prairie-darren-boyer-alberta-crime-1.5194139

Hopefully it catches on. I could see this being useful...of course there would have to be enough people in the neighbourhood using it.
