Manufacturing Criminals: Fourth Amendment Decay in the Electronic Age Kindle Edition

This documentary exposes Fourth Amendment violations by ICAC (Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force). The police organization ICAC uses tactics which directly violate the interception and privacy laws derived from our Fourth Amendment. ICAC originated in Virginia, but is now a nationwide organization. I wrote two amicus briefs with appendices as a pro se litigant and filed them with the Appellate Court of Virginia describing these tactics: 1.Officers claim to be a child and impersonate someone else to intercept communications – without Court authorization. 2.Officers use special tools over the internet to secretly break into private computers and search them - without a warrant. 3.Officers unmask the identity of anonymous online users and geo-locate them - without a warrant. 4. The ICAC Cops Database inventories and tracks content of people's private computers - data obtained without a warrant. Police and prosecutors should be held to the same standard of law as me. These tactics manufacture criminals using grant money, and account for a significant percentage of inmates in Virginia and nationwide. I wrote this book to inform everyone about how our Fourth Amendment rights are eroding away because people do not understand modern technology as it relates to the law. Law enforcement needs to understand why the current techniques violate the privacy laws, and how to catch online criminals correctly without violating citizen’s Fourth Amendment rights. Attorneys and judges will find a wealth of references to law, case law, and explanations of the technology referenced in the law. Politicians need to understand the ramification of their statutes, what is poorly written, and how to improve it. General citizens will learn about these law enforcement techniques and how they should be done. Everyone should ponder whether billions of our tax dollars should be spent to rescue zero children from manufactured criminals. Read more
