"At this time there is no evidence to suggest that such equipment was established for any purpose other than illegal hunting activity," the bulletin said. "However, the apparatus could be used for more nefarious activity that would be of direct concern to the law enforcement and public safety communities."
The first sentence could be from '1984'.
"There's no evidence that you didn't kill your wife."
- DanI-S 16y agoI think what it actually means is that, despite there being evidence that the set-up was intended for illegal hunting activity, there is no evidence that it was intended for anything else (i.e. shooting people).
- pyre 16y agoI find it amusing that 'illegal hunting activity' is not of 'direct concern' to law enforcement. Huh? It's illegal, right? Then why isn't law enforcement concerned? If it's not a big deal then why is it illegal?
- lionhearted 16y agoThe wording in the article is a little hazy, but I think it was trying to say that it's primarily the domain of the Fish and Wildlife Service rather than local police or other federal law enforcement. Any particular law enforcement agency doesn't necessarily take interest in every kind of criminal offense - only things that fall under their jurisdiction. I think the point was that this is primarily a concern for Fish and Wildlife right now regarding illegal hunting - that means not really relevant as a threat to Homeland Security or local police forces, but could become so later.
