Want to know what 25 years of working graffiti cases, and networking with thousands of other individuals that also work graffiti has shown us?
Here is the answer to your graffiti problem Tripwire Covert Camera Systems and Grip Systems Database
The cameras, if used, are guaranteed to catch vandals in the act, notify you via your cell phone within 30 seconds and provides you text and photos of the crime in progress. This allows you and your police agency to respond and take the offenders into custody. Every vandal you identify and take off the street, is money saved from not having to clean their graffiti. You also get the vandals into the court system when some control can be applied to them, if the vandals are minors, then parents can share in the fines for clean up of their Childs graffiti. Yes it is true that some vandals hit the courts several times, most will stop when caught and identified, but by keeping up the heat and working graffiti with the covert cameras, eventually you will make an impact on that hard nosed vandal. Whatever the time frame, make them pay for the clean up cost. These cameras are not like others that just broadcast a voice to scare a vandal away to do graffiti in another location, these cameras notify you within 30 seconds to your cell phone. Grip Database, you should be tracking all graffiti cases, documenting the number of cases caused by these vandals and when you catch one, you query the database and you then prosecute the identified vandal on all the cases with his moniker. The more agencies use this, the better it is as you can find out if a vandal that has hit your area, ha shit adjoining areas or even if that vandal has already been identified by another agency.
