I would certainly hate to see what would happen to this community if there were no police. But i think for alot of people thats what it would take for them to realize society isn't "mature" enough to function without some type of boundries, guidelines or enforcement.

Danzop, I kind of figured thats what you meant. The crimes I'm not exactly certain about, but i would imagine they range from violations of DVPO ( Domestic Violence Protective Orders) to burglary and theft. Admittedly its sometimes the poor report on the officers part, but thats very rare now-a-days. As for FCC, The best thing would be to have less criminals! Fairbanks has alot of issues and a rather high crime rate, the best quick fix would be to at least add on to the jail to at least accomodate the existing prisoners. As for the future, in cooperation with a larger jail, i think its possible to boost the whole "crime stoppers' side of fairbanks. There are alot of bad people here, but thankfully the number of good and contributing members of society are higher. People can make a difference, i think they choose to let Law Enforcement handle the trouble and pass the problems on.

Danzop, the judge isn't dismissing the 50-60% of the cases, thats a statewide figure. The DAO dismisses the cases because there isn't sufficient jail space and theres far too many cases to keep up with. Believe me when i say the jail has NO ROOM. there are currently 65+ beds in the gym of FCC. not exactly safe or efficient.

First of all an improperly illuminated plate means that there was no lights illuminating it! If you look at the AK statutes its an equipment violation and a perfectly legitimate reason to pull an individual over. as for the reasonable suspicion to search the vehicle.. An oficer's discretion is based upon what a REASONABLE person would do. If you pull a crack user over, you're going to know they use drugs its not hard to tell.. It's not the Trooper's fault she doesn't know her rights. If she was so concearned about what she was being pulled over for, she should have told him, no you need a warrant to search my vehicle. Fairbanks has the HIGHEST rate of case dismissals in the State and Nation.. its 50-60 percent dismissal. the state average is 20%!. This makes me sick that judge Mannheimer gives the crack user a break. god forbid she should break the law and get away with it. Good Search bad ruling

Glacierles- As a part of this community dont you think thats not the right approach? Shouldn't we all start accepting some of the blame, rather than passing it off to someone else. as for the blood sucking comment, I don't have fangs last time i checked. Lord knows, the majority of fairbanksans and Alaskans for that matter are carrying guns, the whole vigilanty thing would probably get a little out of control, just a thought. I know someone is going to read your first paragraph and think "holy crap, my dreams come true!"
