These swatters want the police to turn up and use deadly force. They use voice & call scramblers to call the police. The swatters tell the dispatchers that they are mentally unstable / psychotic and have already killed multiple family members and are ready to inflict more damage. Dispatchers have very little time / training to identify if this call is authentic. They just relay the information to the cops who turn up expecting to face a hail of bullets.
- jasonhansel 4y agoHonestly, showing up with a SWAT team as a first step suggests a certain lack of courage, particularly if the officers know how prevalent SWATting is.
