The agreement between the police department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation also encourages the authorities and local prosecutors to sometimes dismiss cases instead of divulging details about the equipment. That arrangement, which was agreed to several years ago, has led police to believe that they can withhold evidence in criminal trials or ignore subpoenas in cases in which the devices are used.
The technology, using devices called Hailstorm or Stingray, can sweep up basic cellphone data from a neighborhood by tricking phones in the area that it’s a cell tower and identifying unique subscriber numbers. That data is then transmitted to the police, allowing them to locate a phone without the user even making a call or sending a text message.

NO!! The police think they can ignore subpoenas, withhold evidence, execute searches without a warrant, and generally thumb their noses at the courts, the law, and the Constitution?
Where in the world would anyone get that idea?
Oh yeah. The facts and evidence. Those damn facts and evidence.
A law unto themselves.... and they couldn't care less about what anyone thinks about it....
Keep cheering.

Polish those boots, 9:56 --- there's a torch ceremony tonight. Afterwards you can burn some Jewish business down.
You probably already have the SS lightning bolt and swastika.
Finally, if you can make the "Top Ten" of facists, you can go to the assembly to swear your undying allegiance to the State.
It's going to be crowded, so come early.
