I remember hearing after the fact that Vernon Howell went into town frequently and was often alone. So it would have been easy to snatch him up without a lot of risk. However, that doesn't make for good propaganda. It also bears the risk of a trial by jury instead of a sympathetic media.Excaliber wrote:I very much favor a little creativity like this over violent dynamic entries for the reasons cited by Charles in this thread. It's not hard to come up with a way to separate the suspect from the premises and go after what you need to recover with low risk to both officers and occupants.Jumping Frog wrote:One officer I know at relatively small town (population 25,000) had a clever scenario. On one search warrant, he had the utilities department call and tell perpetrator he was $15 past due on a water bill and needed to pay it in person that day or his water would be turned off. He left, was detained at the office, and the police executed the search warrant while he was being interviewed.
