Baltimore civil rights groups oppose aerial surveillance pilot program

[FOX] Baltimore Police Commissioner Michael Harrison, who was a previous skeptic of the program, said the test (which could last up to six months) will be "yet another tool" to fight the increasing violence in the city.

The planes will collect imagery during high crime hours, with technology developed by Ohio-based Persistent Surveillance Systems, that will be reviewed by investigators for specific crimes.

Harrison added that police will not have access to live feeds.

"We will be the first American city to use this technology in an attempt to solve and deter violent crime," Harrison said in a news conference Friday.

The pilot program set to launch in May 2020 has been controversial since it was secretively tried three years ago by a different police commissioner.

"Live Feeds" or FMV (full motion video) is a significant capability which should be provided to Law Enforcement.

#5 So if police don't have access to live feeds - how is it supposed to deter violent crime?

#7 Post crime tracking allows more precise ability to determine where the perpetrators originated and what methods of transport and departures they used. The downside is areas with underground public transit,but cameras there coupled with precise entrance/exit times help greatly. As the criminal population is culled, crime drops if they actually incarcerated the criminals.

#8 Except Democrats don't want to remove criminals from the streets. They want to disarm their targets and give the criminals back the vote.

#9 This program will threaten the "skim" income of the Baltimore Corruptocrats. No Crime = No Income. Sounds like a Trump Administration plot or evidence of "White Supremecy". After all, it jes business amonst Dah Brudders and it cuts down SNAP costs.
