RE: Will Recent Sentencing For Swatting Gamer Help To Deter Others?

What is interesting is the ability to get SWAT used by people making prank calls.

As compared to a guy who kept three women in the basement of his house for more than a year. The neighbors called the cops many times saying something very bad was happening there. No SWATting of this actually dangerous and abusive guy.

And no-knock warrants being issued for minor crimes, with little evidence and no real knowledge that the "perpetrator" resides at the address.

It is interesting that the police can go SWATting innocent gamers and can't figure out how to bust a known drug house. Everyone in the community knows its a drug house, but it just remains there, unmolested for months.
