You can make the case of any technology being “useful”. But data has to prove it. Shotspotter drains law enforcement resources and wastes tax payer money. I don’t want my PD chasing fake gunshots at the hinderance of other meaningful gun violence reduction solutions

[National #StopShotSpotter @NatlStopSST]

Police want ShotSpotter because it increases their power, not because it "works." This report from Pasadena shows how police enable SoundThinking to lie about the effectiveness of ShotSpotter, keeping contracts in place and encouraging more to be signed.
