xp1337 07/26/21 7:14:47 PM #54:	A sheriff's office in Florida started up its version of Minority Report. https://twitter.com/JuliaDavisNews/status/1419519167250763776 https://www.tampabay.com/investigations/2021/07/24/pasco-sheriffs-office-letter-targets-residents-for-increased-accountability Pasco County's Sheriff's Office creates a list of people it considers likely to break the law based on criminal history, social networks, and other "unspecified intelligence." It then sends deputies to their homes repeatedly, often without a search warrant or probable cause. As for "other unspecified intelligence," the Tampa Bay Times found they have a separate program that uses kids' grades, attendance records, and abuse histories to label them potential future criminals. It's like a sick fusion of Minority Report and 1984. They send a letter to people in the program and... The Tampa Bay Times reports... "We are pleased to inform you that you have been selected..." it says. But the four-page letter from the Pasco Sheriff's Office goes on to tell recipients they will be facing enhanced police scrutiny under the agency's controversial intelligence program. "You may wonder why you were enrolled in this program," the letter continues, "You were selected as a result of an evaluation of your recent criminal behavior using an unbiased, evidence-based risk assessment designed to identify prolific offenders in our community. As a result of this designation, we will go to great efforts to encourage change in your life through enhanced support and increased accountability." The new letter to so-called "prolific offenders" says its purpose is to communicate the agency's "sincere desire" to help recipients "begin a new path." "We are committed to your success," it says. [...] But it also delivers a stern warning. "Our desire to help you will not hinder us from holding you fully accountable for your choices and actions." In an online video, Sheriff's Office Captain Toni Roach says being selected is "good news" because participants will "have the opportunity to receive assistance from the Pasco Sheriff's Office and several community partners." --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? <cite>xp1337 posted [p:956488731] in Politics C...
