In addition to sniffing out the first signs of a troublesome house party, flash robs, gang clashes, and other mayhem, the NYPD’s unit will scour sites for evidence of already-committed crimes. Many youthful offenders post information, pictures and videos of their criminal misdeeds on social media sites after the fact, either not knowing or not caring how that information can be used against them.
Also, disputes that begin on Facebook, Twitter or via text messaging sometimes end up in a real-world crime, and social media can provide evidence of ongoing family feuds and other disagreements. That was the case this past spring in New York, when those investigating a stabbing between two friends found evidence they had previously argued on Facebook over $20 in diapers.
The new unit will operate under the Community Affairs Bureau and also coordinate several of the city’s outreach programs.
随着社交媒体的流行,犯罪者以此来策划或庆祝非法活动的情况也日趋多见。纽约警察局近日宣布,为更有效执法,将新成立一个社交网络警察部门,在社交媒体上搜索犯罪信息。
该部门专职在脸谱、推特、黑莓信使等社交媒体上搜寻关于有计划犯罪及其罪犯的信息,负责人是助理专员凯文•奥康纳。
美国境内暴力事件日趋多发,伦敦近日还暴发了骚乱,执法部门认为这与社交媒体密不可分。因此,公共安全部门正加强措施,保护公民免受暴乱潮的伤害。
