I DON'T NEGOTIATE with HOSTAGE TAKERS?

Question

Hostage Barricade Teams are more commonly referred to as Hostage Negotiation Teams (HNT) or Crisis Negotiations Team (CNT). Crisis Negotiations Team is becoming is a more politically correct reference as Crisis Negotiator's can respond to more than just hostage situations. CNT's can respond to virtually any type of situation involving a subject or subjects that have barricaded themselves, typically inside a residence or commercial building. Many barricade situations involve a subject who wants to commit suicide or want to be killed by the police (suicide by cop).

When responding to a hostage/barricade situation, CNT will attempt to "negotiate" with the barricade subject. These negotiations can take place over a bullhorn, telephone landline, or cellular phone. In some instances a "throw phone" will be deployed by an agency's tactical team to allow for the CNT to establish communications.

HOW HARD WOULD IT BE to make a metallic THROW PHONE and wire it up (taser style) to a electric system which puts out over 300,000 volts so that when the scumbag is "negotiating" he gets FRIED like a tortilla?

How about a Throw Phone with 1000 CC's of NERVE GAS - the knind that paralyzes instead of kills.

Answer 1

I do. Usually when someone takes hostages it is very rare that there would only be one of them. If this was the case, then it is possible, but it may be fairly useless. There was a similar trick used in the 70's using a noxious touch powder on the handset, but since then most hostage takers have wisened and usually get one of the hostages to answer the phone. Also, they would need to be mobile devices in most occasions, and as such are difficult to wire up. Any further information is confidential, and you would need security clearing to access.

If you are interested in a career in hostage negotiation, contact your local police.

Answer 2

I like your way of thinking! You have done some research on CNT's too. Tell you what, we are 1 for 2 with our CNT's. One successful extrication, one suicide by cop. The taser is 50,000 volts and I'm wondering if 300,000 may be a bit much, however a gas which could be released from a device such as a phone is a very good idea. Invent it, you may be onto something.

Answer 3

The not person-friendly truth of the remember of hostage taking is that the rescuing stress don't have any selection to behave even as a window of danger supplies you itself! human beings might want to assert that they were in the midst of negotiations;inspite of the undeniable fact that the question arises if those exact same negotiations destroy down. Then an enquiry will say it grow to be an danger lost! With the hostage rescue in Afghanistan i have self assurance the authorities made the suited decision!

Answer 4

Providing they can insure that there is only the one hostage taker I think this idea has some real merit. If you get multiple targets it would be harder to make sure you got them all in one shot. Once this started however you would have to find different ways of slipping them something due to the press giving away the secret about the telephone where future hostage takers might be wise to it.
