Joe,

It's good to see Webster acting like a man for once and sharing the good work of these fine Officers once again.

It's a step in the right direction.

It is good to see the city officers getting credit. It's about time the department did this.

It is a step in the right direction. I know it's not good publicity for the city and the crime rate but you must keep the citizens informed.

A lot of arrests are made from tips, if there is no info citizens are unable to help the police.

Proactivity boosts crime because it adds to UCR records. If it were not for proactivity alot of criminals would be left out there untouched until the crime is actually reported. And if officers only arrested reported criminals then any city would be in serious trouble in a very short period of time. Why wait, and go get them before they destroy someone elses lives? It makes the crime rate look larger, but in the long run it will be substantially lower.

SPD only arrests people to make themselves look good to make the public feel as if they have found the right suspect, when if you look at a court docket, about 65 percent of these arrest charges are thrown out due to lack of evidence...stupid police

Are you serious, or just that damn stupid? The 65% you are taliking about is the percentace of arrests that are SPDs on the docket. And as for the case... look at it by a cop by cop basis. Some of us not only take pride in our arrests but also love to win them. Get your facts straight first.

I noticed the same about noice ordinance cases. All that talk to make the punishment greater, I see a lot of case dropped by the state, Nol Pros and a lot of stet dockets.
