the researcher's note

The hot-list half of ALPR, counted here because the counts are large and belong on the record. Aurora, Colorado, 2 August 2020: Brittney Gilliam, her six-year-old daughter, her twelve-year-old sister and two nieces aged 17 and 14 — five people, two of them children handcuffed face-down on the pavement — held at gunpoint for over two hours, $1.9 million paid by the city, because a Colorado SUV's plate number matched a stolen Montana motorcycle and the comparison ignored the state. Contra Costa, Thanksgiving 2019: Brian Hofer and his brother detained, $49,500 paid, because the car had already been recovered and nobody updated the list. In both the reader read the plate correctly; the failure is the hand-written comparison. Not filed as entries.
