Good morning, everyone, it's 1:18am. It's a cloudy but pretty warm night out. I believe it's in the upper 50s or lower 60s right now. Anyway, yep, I'm monitoring 25 right now, and will be doing so until 4:47am. I'm monitoring this time period so all of you can get a feel of what it's like on a spring night in 25. After I'm done monitoring at 4:47, I won't come back until after my dinner this evening. But this will be the last weekend I do that weekend schedule, until the first weekend of September, since June is only a couple of days away. I try to monitor as much as I can in June, July and August since those are the summer months and is when crime is at it's highest in our area. So on that note, here's crime for the overnight hours and for this evening.

Why do they keep taking these bogus calls? Can't they just shut down that cellphone? If its a serious call it shouldn't be anonomyus. One should be required to say who they are. If you want to help stop crime, be involved.
They're required to take EVERY call that comes in to them. They can't just not take a call. And as for being anonymous, even if it's a serious call, there are most times where it's necessary to remain anonymous. Would you want a gangbanger to find out your name and address if you called on them so they can come to hurt or kill you? I think not. I think that for calls like "Shots Fired", if you don't see an offender, that you should be required to give your name. But you know something, bobbo? Most of these 911 call-takers don't even ask you if you want to remain anonymous or not. There's been times where I've wanted to speak to the police, but then I find out my call was anonymous.
Keep crying wolf, and the police won't come...
