Could it be that prop 47 passed right around the time IoT became mainstream & DIY surveillance systems became affordable? Perhaps those crimes are just reported more frequently now because people are likely to have solid evidence to provide police.
I never would have reported a stolen package to police before I had a camera system.
- DrScump 7y ago& DIY surveillance systems became affordable? You're claiming that the presence of cheap surveillance systems increase the occurrence of theft? City governments in SV don't seek to have property crime prosecuted here because they view it as economic stimulus.
- elliekelly 7y ago> You're claiming that the presence of cheap surveillance systems increase the occurrence of theft? No, that’s not at all what I’m saying. I’m suggesting cheap surveillance systems might increase the reporting of theft to law enforcement. Increased reports of a crime does not necessarily mean that crime has is being perpetrated more frequently.
