Part of my job is doing statistical analysis, looking for trends in what seems like chaos. Databasing the license plates of all the car that were stopped at the roadblocks set up after each shooting would have been childs play. I am stunned that this was not being done.

I'm curious about that. 2 or 3 times for an unlucky person to get their plate run, but 10!!@ What are the chances?

I kept thinking this the whole time. I imagine the cars at the very least have dash mounted terminals. Even if the input is just dumped into a nice strong Oracle or SQL box you're probably only dealing with several thousands of unique records. Any pattern should have been extremely easy to discern with just basic queries.

You'd think this would be SOP in a case like this. Oh well, maybe they learned.

I firmly believe that the only way the PCers can stay in power in any organization, public or corporate, is to control the flow of information. Their power is insured when they control the information on critical issues and only allow what they want out after it is laundered.

Remember the info relayed to the team collecting the info was hand written on to carbon copy forms. That system would preclude the real data from getting into what you proposed.
