RE: An Officer's Take: Thoughts on "The CSI Effect". Television v.s. Reality.

in #crime7 years ago (edited)

Yea. My house got completely looted, perp(s) broke in through a window, turned it upside down took everything of value. Lot's of this happening and cops think it is organized so the local CSI team shows up. Spend a couple hours dusting and doing their thing. Found nothing. Zero, zilch, nada. It was very eye opening. Basically if you wear gloves, have short hair/wear a hat and don't bleed/urinate/spit there isn't much chance you're going to get caught via CSI type evidence. The CSI team said the same thing - TV CSI is ridiculous.

I learned that the best way to catch/prevent bad guys is to have cameras. So we now have lots of cameras. No more bad guys.

Sorry to hear about that. Yes, it usually is very eye-opening. Cameras are your best defense as a home/business owner. Not even that expensive anymore, you can just get one that activates via motion censor and uploads the content right to your phone. Thanks for commenting!
