[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From a comment "I have several extremely visible, fingerprints and handprints all over my vehicle and MPD won’t even come out"

So no finger print taking on victim's vehicles.  If there were matches and prints in the system.[/quote]

Police don’t do prints, the disaccredited crime lab would, and even if they were accredited, fingerprints on a car mean absolutely nothing. No prosecutor is going to support any kind of warrant or prosecution based on car fingerprints.[/quote]

Why not?  If the prints are matched and I, as the owner, would testify that this person was not allowed in my car, it’s pretty obvious, isn’t it?  It’s not going to be your local auto mechanic’s prints, and if so that would be obvious as well. I really don’t know what the problem is here.  Other than simply a complete refusal to enforce any laws and hold any criminals accountable![/quote]

Im tired of the finger print excuse as well..don't get in a car that isn't yours. If your prints are found, explain why they are there. If you got into an empty, abandoned car - you shouldn't have and there should be a penalty. I don't walk around checking car handles and sitting in unlocked cars, do you?. If you got into a stolen car your friend was driving,.identify them. [/quote]
