starchase pursuit management technology
DESCRIPTION
The Pursuit Ends Here. The StarChase system is a proven, less-lethal technology that provides a significant tactical advantage to law enforcement officers in failure-to-yield or high-risk flight situations. Once a vehicle is tagged it enables a dispatcher to track the suspect in real time using a web-based mapping program. The officer remains on the street, a potentially dangerous pursuit is avoided, and the offender can then be safely apprehended.TRANSCRIPT

ON AVERAGE, PURSUIT-RELATED CRASHES RESULT IN
55,000 injuries each yearHill, 2002, FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin
360+ officer and civilian fatalities each year Pursuit Safety, 2013
$1.3 BILLION in jury-awarded damagesAELE Law Library, Case Summaries 1988-2007 | does not include out-of-court settlements
With a more restrictive or no-pursuit policy, ‘burglars, car thieves, and non-violent felons elude police at will’ and
may continue on to commit other crimes. Eisenberg, March 1999
After so many bad outcomes, the backlash
against high-speed pursuits has resulted
in many communities turning to no-
pursuit policies. Unfortunately, it is highly
unsatisfying to law enforcement personnel,
whose ability to do their jobs is compromised.
Ongoing liability exposure for property damage, injury and death
Billions in insurance and court settlements, medical bills, workers’ compensation, and lost wages
Wear and tear plus damage to law enforcement vehicles
Damage to public image
Loss of public trust and support
Reduced effectiveness due to inability to apprehend suspects
Erosion of morale among law enforcement personnel
