The attack on the CSD in Berlin has exposed a serious flaw in the European security system. The suspect, a high-risk Islamist under surveillance, was released on probation by a judge despite being convicted of preparing an attack. Citizens are wondering how it is possible for such an individual to be back on the streets, attempting to kill again.
Surveillance Technology: Sophisticated Tools for Failed Human Decisions 🛡️
Current monitoring systems include real-time GPS, AI-based behavioral pattern analysis, and shared databases between agencies. However, no technological tool can compensate for a judicial decision that ignores the risk history. The software predicts recidivism in similar cases with 85% accuracy, but if the judge does not consult that data or dismisses it, the technology is reduced to an expensive ornament.

It seems the German judicial system has discovered the miracle method for deradicalizing a convicted terrorist in record time: a couple of interviews with a psychologist and a promise to behave. Meanwhile, Berlin citizens can sleep soundly knowing that the dangerous individual is on probation, like any other neighbor, only with a desire to blow something up.
