Over the years I have been involved in a number of very serious crimes being "resolved" because of Tracker being fitted to vehicles: murders, kidnappings, carjackings, drug pushers and SOCA stuff. And some potential suicides being found.

Should the police pay Tracker for those cases where otherwise a serious crime would have gone unsolved and violent serial criminals not been caught?

Or should we just all be happy to have something else to assist us in preventing and detecting crime?

Using the same sort of argument witnesses should be asking the cops for a fee to make a statement.
