I hate how much effort is put into property damage but when my house was broken into or when my friends truck was stolen, the police did nothing.
It’s also disturbing how hard it is to be anonymous. Crime or not, it gives me the creeps that anyone could probably track me down if they wanted.
The police are here to protect the owner class.
Class traitors
Yeah, pretty basic opsec is not to drive to the crime scene. And don’t bring anything with you that is not essential to the mission and which might get dropped and be used as evidence.
Wear cheap sweats and a ski mask. Dispose of them all as soon as you can. If cars are involved, use fake plates. Better yet, use bicycles and ride as much as possible off paved roads. And don’t ride straight home.
Oh, and the basic - don’t carry your cell phone/smart watch regardless of whether it’s switched off
These people got caught because someone found their car and thus license plate.
Another had left a fingerprinted bottle that went missing when watching surveillance footage.
And then were able to confirm after finding the same outfit from the surveillance footage.
The lessons to be learned are to not use cars anywhere near the scene, leave no trace, fingerprints or digital evidence, including a phone, and make sure any recognizable clothing is well hidden, or even better thoroughly destroyed.
Oh and don’t post anything on social media.
Taking your own car, leaving a bottle with prints at the scene and keeping the clothes worn during the act is just laughably stupid mistakes. I mean, come on guys, have you never watched a detective show!?
Kinda /s, but also not because damn those are stupid, borderline hilarious, mistakes.
The vine diagram between competent and willing to do vandalism is not a large one.
Good biking weather lately.
The irony of being asked to sign up to a website to be able to read an article about opsec failures
