Chicago Ditches ShotSpotter to Expected Results

One dead, and 2 injured in areas previously monitored by ShotSpotter. Woman, dead for at least a day, found murdered in alley previously served by ShotSpotter - CWB Chicago

A woman was found shot to death in a South Side alley on Saturday morning after a resident called 911 because her body had been in the same place for about two days.

Chicago cops found four shell casings in the alley, which was monitored by ShotSpotter until Mayor Brandon Johnson terminated the city’s contract with the gunfire detection system earlier this week.

Why did Johnson cancel ShotSpotter? Because he's an idiot. Alderman, the law-abiding citizens, cops, and his hand picked Superintendent of the PD tried to get him to reconsider that decision, but he hates cops, and anyone and everything that isn't the Chicago's teachers union.

At least two other victims survived being shot this week in areas previously served by ShotSpotter even though nobody called 911 to report gunfire.

Hat tip goes to HeyJackass: ShotSpotter-less Weekend, and also to Second City Cop: As Predicted, who had this to say about a dead body lying in the street (or alley) for two days.

But this is some third-world type shit, brought to you by Conehead and the CTU "progressives" who own his ass.

See the HeyJackass! link for the weekend murder totals, and the SCC link for another comment on the situation with ShotSpotter.
