Peterbilt Pilferer In Pajama Pants

Here's a great example of why a "surveillance state" does absolute jack to deter crime.

Yeah you got him on film, grainy low res film that you can barely tell if he's wearing flannel or pajamas. You see him steal (Hotwire? Were the keys in it?) a semi and rip through your $200 fence like it was toilet paper.

Don't know why the perp abandoned the truck down the road after all that hassle. Better hope his DNA or fingerprints aren't on file.

Oh wait, some police departments don't even bother with that. It's not CSI, the truck's recovered insurance cuts a check and the world keeps revolving.

Perp gets a free ride to the other side of town plus whatever he swiped from the truck to pawn for his next fix.

You wanna catch that guy? Check the morgue in a year or two when he shows up a a John Doe overdose.
