That sounds fishy to me. I'm thinking the lawyer probably recommended this so he can bill her for services.

I completely agree with that

Because AirBnB typically requires some form of ID, and if there had been a proper check maybe these kids would have been found months ago.

Yes they do! We tried to rent a night for my family member who needed a place to stay for a few days. I put in her info as she was going to be the one checking in (I live in a different state). Had to put in her driver’s license number and everything. After the reservation was made I got an email saying that the rental was denied and they blocked my account. I can only assume it’s because my family member is an ex felon.

That's fucked up. I've not found one reason to rent from them. I hope you were able to find suitable lodging for your relative. Like they don't have enough shit on their plate from society.

Thank you! Yea at that point I just got them a hotel room for a couple days until their situation could be sorted out. I’ve never rented from them before and I damn sure won’t now with all the ridiculous rules and fees.

You're welcome! Yeah, I'm not about cleaning and cleaning fees nor exorbitant rates for a vacation. I've read so many horror stories. I'll just take my ass to the hotel/motel, thank you very much. LOL

"Routine tag check" So they were just rolling through the parking lot at the grocery store randomly running plates? I'm glad they were rescued, but what the fuck?

I am speculating wildly and am the furthest thing for a cop apologist but maybe they were out of state plates and they do a check on those in case it’s someone running?

That sounds like infringing on civil liberties. They can't even ask you for ID unless they suspect you of a crime. Why would they be able to just randomly run plates. Idk, sounds a little "show me your papers" and fascist to me.

Your car doesn't have civil liberties and your plates are in plain sight for a reason.

Police departments of large cities have cops running plates down side streets all day long. In the country, it’s common to see cops on freeway entrance ramps running plates for cars getting on the freeway.

Many police departments have vehicles equipped with automatic license plate scanners. They roll through parking lots, etc, scanning every car. They're also mounted on streetlights, highway overpasses, etc.

Thanks for the info! That's wild. So they can run your plates to get your identity without cause, but if they stop you on foot for something they need to suspect you if a crime to require you to provide ID? That seems weird.

Driving is a regulated activity. You require a license, vehicle registration, and (most places) insurance. The police have broad powers that are meant to enable them to make sure drivers are operating their vehicles within the bounds of the many laws and regulations that govern the operation of motor vehicles. Checking up on these things will also reveal any outstanding warrants for the registered owner. If you're on foot, you are not participating in a regulated activity, and most jurisdictions do not require you to identify yourself unless the officer has a reasonable, articulable suspicion that you are, have, or are about to commit a crime. In the US, this is because one is (supposedly) protected by the 4th ammendment to the constitution, which protects against unlawful search and seizure. Other democratic countries mostly have similar protections.
