Law Enforcement can now look through your walls - Without a warrant

"WASHINGTON — At least 50 U.S. law enforcement agencies have secretly equipped their officers with radar devices that allow them to effectively peer through the walls of houses to see whether anyone is inside, a practice raising new concerns about the extent of government surveillance.

Those agencies, including the FBI and the U.S. Marshals Service, began deploying the radar systems more than two years ago with little notice to the courts and no public disclosure of when or how they would be used. The technology raises legal and privacy issues because the U.S. Supreme Court has said officers generally cannot use high-tech sensors to tell them about the inside of a person's house without first obtaining a search warrant."

The devices are sensitive enough they can even see your breath from more than 50 feet away. So they could just drive down the street, slow down and aim the device at your home and tell which room of the house you are in, if you and your significant other are having intimate relations, or if you are on the toilet or alone.

Law Enforcement say they need it to protect lives in case they have to enter after a suspect.  In a case where they HAVE a Valid and proper warrant signed by a judge, I have no problem with that.

However, Law Enforcement Agencies having been using these for at least 2 years, and the general public is just NOW hearing about these?  SO how long have these devices been used without a warrant or proper supervision?

Who has access to these devices?

Do they have a built in recording function?

Just how detailed are they?

Can a person be readily identifiable?

How many children may have been viewed with these devices?

Do you see what the problem is?

Law Enforcement agencies could have used these devices to go on "Fishing Expeditions", drive down a street peering through peoples walls, see something they think might be a crime and the next thing you know, you have a SWAT Team kicking in your door and people and property getting damaged, injured or killed.

So right now, we the Citizens, need to know WHO is using these devices. HOW their use is regulated and supervised, WHETHER or not they have the ability to record the information and JUST HOW detailed that information is.

And we need to be sure they ARE NOT being used by Law Enforcement to violate our 4th Amendment Rights.

Looking through our walls to see if someone is doing something, or even if someone has a grow operation, WITHOUT a warrant is a violation of our Rights.

So if the Police want to use these, they need to have a Valid Warrant specifying exactly where the device is to be used, and limits just how long that device can be used at that location before another warrant is required.

For all we know, a Law Enforcement Agency could get a warrant for an arrest or a search and then leave one of these devices across the street surveilling  the location for weeks, recording what the occupants do.

Think I'm crazy?  Look around you now at all of the stuff going on.

NYPD Officers were found planting firearms on suspects just recently.  In the past that and the planting of narcotics have also been done.  It's documented FACT.

Do you think for a second, that if the cops had this kind of technology in their hands that they WOULDN'T abuse it?

It' human nature.
