DHS, through Border Patrol, is allegedly running Predictive Intelligence Targeting Teams
DHS, through Border Patrol, is allegedly running Predictive Intelligence Targeting Teams. PITT. They scan financial habits, grab the plate, and feed it to local police. Some drivers were never flagged for a crime. The roadside reason is invented. The real reason is the bank trail.
Two desks named so far: Spokane, WA. Laredo, TX. Not an immigration story. You and me.
Military.com asked if they get a warrant first. Whether a specific crime is required. Whether vets and families get swept in. CBP would not say. Methods stay classified.
404 Media: stated purpose was finding people who already committed crimes. They found no instances. What they found looks like pretext for the stop. Kyle Olson in Montana. Analyst already told highway patrol his finances looked like narcotics patterns. Genuine probable cause cannot be synthetically generated.
Wretched Watchman
