    Personally, I don't care if it's labeled "by order of the POTUS", I would assume ownership of it, pry the device off, & smash it w/ a hammer. Then, if I'm questioned I'd demand a lawyer to be present before answering squat! There is precedent for an ownership argument just by the fact that whenever they find any sort of illegal contraband in any vehicle, the ownership is always the owner of the vehicle.

    I drive a semi for a living. The machine is inspected daily and from time to time, I find road debris caught up in the truck somewhere. Being a responsible and caring individual, I remove the debris and place it in the first available trash receptacle I find. And if the label on it that says,”Property of Blah Blah PD, if found, please call BR549” happens to be obscured by road dirt and road oil, I won’t be feeling an obligation to clean it off to read it because it was a foreign object stuck to my machine.

    I watched a guy on my IR CCTV camera doing something at the rear of my car at 4am one morning. I have a wireless perimeter alarm that goes off in my hallway whenever anyone crosses over my sidewalk and heard it beep. I watched the guy on my camera and when he walked off, I watched him through my window walk a couple of houses down and get in the passenger seat of an SUV and it drove off. I went outside and found it stuck magnetically behind my back wheel on the body. Pried it off, saw what it was, and dropped it into my car seat. Next morning I get up, drive to a waffle house on I-20, grab a bite to eat and when I left, I stuck it to the little back blade of a Bobcat on a trailer with Mississippi plates. I lived in Texas.

    You left off the recent use of trackers to steal automobiles by either tracking them back to the house to be stolen at night or tracking to a movie theatre or other venue where they know it will sit for a while. And even the police themselves warned people to be aware of unknown trackers placed on their vehicle.

    What he should have done. Get to a police station and press charges against unknown, for illegally tracking him (Citizen). As a criminal, it's obviously better not to tip them off, about the fact you know they track you. Over here, i would be more worried, that the tracker was from organized crime than the police. they don't do that yet (to my knowledge) but they do shadow people, so they know when to commit burglaries without being disturbed.

    Nothing, but police do that with anything, so it's a bit of an odd loophole to try to get someone on when you can literally just plant drugs on them. If they're able to plant that on his car, they could have taped something illegal to the spare tire or something then said "While attempting to install GPS tracker, x, y, and z were found." I mean, obviously less loop holes are better, but we still live in a police state where our "freedom" can be stripped from us at anytime regardless, unfortunately.

    Years ago, I came home to find someone left junky old furniture in my backyard. I put it on the curb because trash pickup was the next morning. After the trash was picked up, I got a call from a relative who said it was antique furniture that she wanted me to store for her. She hadn’t left a note, there wasn’t a voicemail, and I didn’t even know she was in town. Did I steal her antiques? Her junk, that she didn’t take with her when she moved seven years prior, had worn out it’s welcome with the people she had entrusted it to. She had them dump it on my property and I treated it as abandoned property. How am I supposed to know if something in or on my car is not abandoned property?

But it would be easy enough to surveil someone follow them when they go somewhere and then place the tracker on their vehicle once they've left their home and are no longer on private property. Additionally, police are allowed to go on to private property even enter a residence if they're in what's called hot pursuit, that is basically chasing someone who's just committed a crime. It's not like the cops have to stop and stand outside the door of someone's personal residence because they were chasing a robber or a killer and they ran into the front door or back door or any door of a private residence. Also, if there's an unmarked device on your car, unless you have first-hand knowledge I would have no clue what a GPS tracker looks like.

    Well, I think the confidential informants are used to generate leads and obtain warrants, not as actual evidence or testimony during trial.

It was electronic in nature and wasn’t there the last time I washed my car. My wife and daughter were out of town for a week visiting relatives. No idea who put it there. I am not a criminal and the worst I have done is speeding tickets when I was a teen. I removed it and contemplated a long time what to do with it. Decided to just throw it in the garbage. I was a businessman, the only thing I could think was some sort of corporate espionage but that didn’t make sense either as my companies were doing well but just 3 small companies that payed me well but were no threat to anyone. Still don’t know to this day who put it there or why. Never found anything else since? That was about 25 years ago.

    A question. I'm no lawyer, but if an unidentified person leaves an unidentifiable object on a person's property, how can it be theft if the property owner removes it? If someone leaves a cell phone in a taxi, is it theft if the taxi driver moves the phone to a lost and found? If a person purchases a home and later finds a can of money in the yard, they didn't steal the money? The money was there. If a person purchased a car that, unknown to them contained a tracker, the tracker would belong to them. If you throw away an item, on the ground, or hopefully in the trash, it no longer belongs to you and can be recovered by the authorities or presumably someone else. By the same standard, would this be theft? Another thought. Does this mean, if some unknown person sets up a camera in your yard or in your home, pointed at your bedroom or bathroom, would it be theft if you removed it? This is a crazy expansion of property rights.

Two dark figures rounded the corner just as he did the same - and reflexively he swung that shovel at his head with all his might. The other man took off running, apparently straight to the police station - where BOTH of them worked! Of course they charged the homeowner with assault on a LEO (they never ID’d themselves!) Nothing ever came of those charges, but he and his wife have been harassed by both county and municipal officers ever since.

Do no remove it, have an attorney sweep the vehicle, find it, and file suit. The longer it has been on it, the more money you will get in punitive damages. The law enforcement also can not leave 'On Star' on the vehicle, and use it as a tracker, as stated in the Fed Sup Ct. Do remove it, but first have an attorney document it, pull the tax records to prove how long it has been on the vehicle, then file suit. Again, no law enforcement agency can leave a GPS tracker on one's vehicle over 28 days. Noting that the Patriot Act 1 & 2 retired, a warrant is required, and this also helps to date how long, that they have left it on their vehicle.

    I agree 100%. I have heard of the Feds putting trackers on aircraft, but they had a notice on it. If an A&P mechanic found it doing maintenance or required inspections found it, they are required to leave it in place and not inform the aircraft owner. I know of one where a guy bought the plane from an action where the plane was seized and later sold by the government and the new owner was having the required inspections done to bring the aircraft airworthy, so it was clear that it should have been removed. The trouble was it was installed in such a way to cause a hazard and the mechanic was conflicted about it and called the Feds and could not get any direction and yet he could not sign off the plane was airworthy because of it and could not inform the new owner. What a mess. In the case you mentioned, I think the police should have caulked it up as a loss. Theft is a specific intent crime. There was no intent to commit a crime by removing a tracking device the vehicle owner did not authorize its installation. Lots of finance companies and so on install tracking devices and if you bought a used car and found one on there thinking it was from the original purchase and financing, there is nothing wrong with removing it. Why would you have to assume it was placed by the government by court order??????? Crazy.

    Steve, as a former radio engineer I think I have a solution that is perfect. If it were me I would not remove the unit and be subject to theft. I would have left it there but covered it with an R.F. (Radio Frequency) shield that would have kept any radio signals from leaving the unit. That way, I have not "touched or modified" the tracking device. This idea would have worked even if the unit had an internal recorder because it would have been able to receive signals to indicate location. Do you think this would be a "legal work around"?

Is that theft of resources as it could put undo stress on the battery/alternator of the car? I mean this is a what if scenario in the extreme but what would you think? Also if it is tied into the electrical system, and it causes something to fail is LE responsible for that? Seems at best fishy and I would definitely not want one on my car.

And no I'm not joking and the slightest bit to try to be sensational. As I said I spent two years on Iraq and I've seen the results of bombs that are placed on vehicles. And if there are no markings on this thing And I feel stupid enough to take it off myself I will destroy it. That is insane to think that they can just arbitrarily attach a device to my vehicle. No this is not a good thing and yes it is difficult for the police but that's the nature of the beast: You have to prove that I have done a criminal act I don't have to prove that I'm not a criminal.

    The simple answer in the future is to remove the device keeping it in the car and driving to the police station nearest. Take it inside to the reception desk and say I found this under my car in my driveway and it is not mine. It has no name on it so I am turning into the lost and found for you to hold for the owner. The statement it was found on the ground under the car relieves the car owner of being charged with removing it and by giving it back to the police and getting a receipt for it you are stopping them dead in their tracks from using it as a basis for further exploration and warrant applications. Put it back in their hands and say "Caught you" without legal risk.

    If I found a tracker, I wouldn't leave it at my house. There' a lot of really messed up people out there, and while it's unlikely to ever impact me personally, I believe it's good advice to not let someone who you don't know see your home address if you have the potential ability to deny them that information still. (Who knows how long the tracker has been on the car - maybe it got put there today/yesterday and tossing it now could mean they don't know where your address is). Think of a stalker who saw you at work, came back a few times to figure out which car was yours, and then sticks an airtag/tracker on it. In general, if law enforcement proactively choose to perform actions without identifying themselves or their property clearly to you, then I believe it is absolutely correct to be able to treat them and their property the same as if any ol' random stranger/stalker was doing it instead. The same applies for no-knock warrants. Civilians protecting themselves from unknown armed intruders are reacting on instinct based on the information available to them (or the lack of information available) and should not be considered criminals. If police want special legal protections/abilities then they should identify themselves as police.

    What I would be tempted to do is go to the police station and register it as a found article. If they didn't own up and formally claim it in time, it would become mine to do with as I wish.

    Went to post office....was close to police station.... placed their own tracker on their code enforcement vehicle. Now they have a actual criminal to follow around. 🤔😂

    How do we know the confidential informants aren't lying or making stuff up? These informants, who are often offered a deal of immunity for their own crimes, are then informing on people with no questioning. The entire system is broken.

    I'd assume that someone coming to my property in the middle of the night to put a tracker on our cars would be doing it for nefarious purposes.

    Call the bomb squad for a suspicious box on your car while parked in a crowded area.

    Sound like a sound plan. That way the police themselves remove the device.

    Better yet wait for a court date and call it in parked next to the courthouse. I wonder how happy the judges who had to drop everything and evacuate the building for hours would be with the police when they found out it was a tracker

    Maybe not a good idea. The bomb squad might perform a controlled detonation of the device while it is in place. For public safety of course.

    That’s a good point. If there is no property label on it, you may assume it’s a gift from an anonymous donor. Just like those advertisers who send junk mail with some cheap “gift” inside.
