Pictures of drug arrestees on the web

As promised, the Peoria Police Department has a new section on its website called the Drug Nuisance Property section. If you click on the months in the left-column menu, you can see mug shots of those “individuals [who] were arrested for various offenses at the listed addresses.” The police go on to say, “It is hoped that the photos of the arrested individuals will serve as a deterrent to others.”

In addition, the Journal Star reports:

Ten properties also are listed on the Web site, marked as “sightings” of the department’s Armadillo nuisance vehicle. The vehicle, an old Brinks truck outfitted with a bulletproof exterior and armed with surveillance equipment, was created to annoy residents disturbing the peace of their neighbors.
