Thursday, December 30th, 2010 -- 6:23 pmPolice in Delaware may soon be unable to use global positioning systems (GPS) to keep tabs on a suspect unless they have a court-signed warrant, thanks to a recent ruling by a superior court judge who cited famed author George Orwell in her decision.
In striking down evidence obtained through warrantless GPS tracking, Delaware Judge Jan R. Jurden wrote that
"an Orwellian state is now technologically feasible,"
adding that
"without adequate judicial preservation of privacy, there is nothing to protect our citizens from being tracked 24/7."
(It's no surprise that)
The ruling goes against a federal appeals court's decision last summer that allowed warrantless tracking by GPS.

One small step for a very brave lady, one giant leap back toward the Constitution.
"Long live the cause of freedom!"
Samm - We need more judges like this one, that's for sure.
This judge allowed a multi-billionaire child rapist to go free [probatioon].
This judge needs to be removed, NOW.
How can one rely on the justice system when this woman let a child rapist go free and with just probation for raping his own 3yr old daughter..she's a shame to this country!
Evil people are quietly smiling,thanks to her. A father rapist, and people like him who need to be watched.
