Man you just don't know laziness and incompetence when it's sitting right in front of you. If they actually used surveillance they would end up having to arrest someone and then testify at trial. I'm guessing they pay their retired friends for this program and then do nothing with it other than put out a call that shots were fired in a neighborhood. Also, a lack of details about what it does keeps the wealthy DC homeowners at ease thinking gun violence will be prosecuted.
Keep in mind Bowser dismantled the vice squads who had the job of infiltrating, setting up probable cause, and executing raids. You think a beat cop should knock on the front door of a drug house and… do what exactly? DC residents are getting exactly the police services they’ve voted for.
Beat cop? This isn’t the 1950s.

A woman was kept out of a show in New York when facial recognition identified her as working for a law firm that was suing Madison Square Garden.
The surveillance tech is further along than people realize.

I don't recall a vote on vice squads. But sure, Bowser could do better. Put up a candidate who's a.) actually better and b.) actually electable. Haven't seen that happen.
