[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First and foremost, the problem is getting a jury to convict. MPD and Federal prosecutors want convinctions, but jury nullification is a very real issue in DC. Second, I'm glad MPD does not chase. It would just cause unnecessary death and even more mayhem. It sounds like MPD has taken a harder line this year about doing reconnaissance and confiscating ATVs/motorcycles when riders put into storage or try to park them in backyards. That's how you crack down on them. [/quote] I don't think you have an accurate perception of how often pursuits end up deadly, especially for innocent civilians. Plus, people probably wouldn't ride the ATVs in the first place If they knew the MPD was going to chase.[/quote]
