There are those who would tell you to never talk to cops, even if you’re innocent. I wonder what the outcome here would have been if you had taken that advice.
He would have gone to bed secure in the knowledge that he had exercised his constitutional rights. Not his own bed, of course, but a bed. A couple of weeks later he could have posted an irate video on YouTube about it.

You need a way to see who is at your door without opening it.
True. There are doorway windows on either side of the door so I’m able to see, kind of. Which is what I did. But at that point whoever is knocking at my door at 1030pm can also see me.
We have a storm door we will install soon, although that doesn’t matter. Maybe I need a peep hole, or video camera, or BLM sign.

I wonder how many of those with BLM signs proudly displayed in their front yards, take them down if they try to sell the home. People who find wokedom repellant, buy homes too. I guess the situation would present another opportunity for social progressives to establish that they are unwilling to make personal sacrifices for the ideals they love to make noise about. Because there is no way those BLM signs stay up alongside a for sale sign.

Wonder why it took them 12 hours to come see you?
A potential kidnapping of a kid - I would have think they would have been much faster.

Cops will often visit very early in the AM or late in the evening to increase the intimidation/fear effect. They may have had reason to believe there was no urgency in re a kid's safety.

If the witness had seen him take a child from the car seat and put him in the trunk, it may have been different…

Yeah I'm guessing it was more of a welfare check than kidnapping (otherwise, like you said @taiwan_girl it should've been an emergency alert). No idea. I kind of wonder if they went to the store to look at the parking lot footage.
@LuFins-Dad maybe we are weird but we don't want a doorbell camera. I dont want the alerts or even a video of me coming and going during the day. I try to remain analog with a few things in my life, LOL. Although I have thought about getting a passive driveway camera just in case something ever happens that we need to look at footage of, such as a stolen package or even a kid running in a direction without our awareness.
