      Is there a label on the tracker saying it belongs to the police and if found must be returned? The trackers I've seen only have some obscure numbers on the outside and no indication of their purpose. Assuming it does not, then the car owner cannot be certain just what it is for and should be able to just remove it and destroy it however they can.

    I also want to point out that if the cops put something on your car, demand it back, and then arrest you for possessing it when you go to return it, that would be one of the most cut-and-dry examples of entrapment I've ever seen.

      If a police officer posing as a prostitute in order to provoke someone into offering money for sex so they can charge him or the police setting up a trap in the form of a manipulated car they then they hope to lure someone to try to steal isnt entrapment, then I dont know what is.

    This reminds me of a friend who was a firearms dealer and also had a license to manufacture explosives. An ATF informant came to his business and attempted to buy several guns and regulated explosive items without paperwork. The dealer sold him several antique guns and black powered guns without paperwork. He also sold him binary components. He charged the informant ten times what the items were worth. The man left and minutes later two ATF agents arrived. The gun dealer laughed at them and told them that he did everything legal and they agreed. The ATF agents then asked him for their buy money back and his said no way jose. It was a legal salel and I am satisfied with the outcome.

    Your Possession of Stolen Property warning is absolutely warranted.
    When I was 15 years old my parents used to let me have house parties at my place all the time, and some arse "accidentally" or not, left a stolen film camera at my house. (This was back in the 90s)
    The next day my girlfriend at the time and I were cleaning up after the party, and found the camera. It just so happened to belong to HER parents, she knew I didnt take it, we found it together. It fell out of a jacket pocket when we picked it up.
    But her parents hated me with a passion, so when we returned it to them, thinking theyd be grateful to have it back, they called the police on me and had ME charged with possession of stolen property.
    The story doesnt end there tho;
    They hit me with a $300 restitution and 90 hours of community service.
    But, it was a small town, I was one of the few teenagers with a daily afternoon job, so I thought I could get them all done every Sunday if I didnt miss ANY Sundays.
    Everything worked great until the last 3 weeks before my court date.
    I had 9 HOURS left, I walked into court thinking I'd just ask for another week to complete them, I GOT 6 MONTHS IN YOUNG OFFENDERS!
    I spent my 16th birthday in there.
    And the kicker to all this, Bobbi, my girlfriends mother, WORKED AT THE YOUNG OFFENDERS!
    Listen to this lawyer!
    If or when you ever see stolen property, well, I'd just say absolutely destroy it.. but the good lawyer here says that could be another charge in and of itself.. goddamn this system is broken as all hell!

      Sorry, I forgot to add, the last 3 weeks before the court date I got 6 months at, thr guy I was doing my hours with at the towns Arena, "went on vacation".
      The other employees at the arena said they cant sign my hours off for me, my probation officer said wander around to community based organizations like the old folks home. The old folks home and the arena are the only two places I could do my hours in that town, I asked the old folks home and they said they already had too many probationers doing hours there.
      I went back to the arena and worked those hours anyway, they just didnt count because nobody signed the hours off for me.

    I used to attach and recover GPS units in the busy parking lots of the mall, “bad” neighborhoods, gated communities and so on. I was usually going solo, although at times I would have a spotter nearby to warn of someone approaching. A friend of mine was installing a unit and dropped his wallet in the driveway. The subject of his investigation was kind enough to bring the wallet, complete with his PI license inside, to his house…along with the tracker. Good times.

But when they started executing all those warrants including his house. It was later discovered some how the tracker was on a Dominoes delivery car.

      @@RUclipsChannel-rg2sb So just drain the battery and leave it be. It will still be there when they check but the batteries they use in the current ones you basically have to disassemble the stupid thing to replace. Most of it is a case with a small circuit board with 3 or 4 chips and a connection to the VRM for the battery so it doesn't over nor under volt itself. The battery compared to the circuit board is huge.

      If Harris is installed, the thin veil of tracking your phone will be pierced. They do it now but don’t use it in court. Currently in one state they are trying to force the Amish get a phone so they can have surveillance. Our government is unhinged.
