was there any reason for the SWAT team?

was that police theatrics or standard operating procedure? because it seems like police could easily get someone to waive their miranda rights if, like the guy in this case, that person was subject to all sorts of intimidating theatrics.

in this case, it seems like the defendant fell for a good cop/bad cop routine, with Boston playing the bad cops and Manchester, NH the good cops. then, when he asserted his right, the Manchester cops decided to play the role of pushy salesmen and talk him out of it. nice decision by the judge.

Quote-of-the-Moment

I say we take the oil. I don't think people realize the super-crisis mode the North Country is in. When you talk about the cost of fuel oil and how it hits a family, our average family income is half what it is down in southern New Hampshire.
-- Republican Sen. John Gallus on 'controversy' of accepting oil assistance for low income people from Citgo and the socialist government of Venezuela.
