1/ As you may know, @CrimeWatchMpls is a volunteer effort. All of the research and reporting we've provided for over 11 years has been done for free as a public service -- because we believe people deserve information that's sorely lacking from authorities & mainstream #MNmedia.
2/ No entity or agency pays us to do this. And while it's our passion to provide all of this information for free, it's not free to produce. There are real costs involved and absorbed by us (equipment, scanners, software, electronic storage and costs for obtaining public data).
3/ In the past we've been able to obtain occasional criminal complaints from various counties or agencies for our reporting (when often a courthouse visit would be required).
As volunteers, we don't have "staff" or resources to be running to the courthouse for documents.
