My information from a former source in SCPD is the OB area after Midnight is not patrolled at all. If a call comes in from that area a SCPD car from the 1st or 3rd is dispatched. No cop in SCPD is going to go down there unless they are called or if they found a nice place to take a nap. But there are plenty of quiet locations on the Mainland .Why go all the way down there to fight with the mosquitos when you have a perfectly good firehouse to catch a few winks? If I know that then what makes you think a criminal doesn't know that?
There is a story told to me where a burglar did a break to trigger the alarm. The burglar would go back an hour later if no police were dispatched to the alarm. The alarm went out and the car never showed up until an hour later. As long as he was there why not take a spin around. And what does he find? The burglar in the store. The cop is hailed as a hero for being so diligent. LOL.
A few years ago the idiot Dormer went public and said there were so many false alarms that his cops weren't going to respond to a chronic alarm. The burglar(s) just got the word - the field is open for easy pickings if you do it the right way. Trigger the alarm time and time again and leave and make it a chronic location. Any burglar worth his salt has a police scanner. If the cops are sent again they will hear it on the scanner and disapper before the cops come, or don't come. Why take a chance. And these idiots advertise this in the newspapers.
