I could over look once or twice to a "glitch" but 50 times... give me a break. And the old couple too. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Grandma]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 23rd 2010 7:59AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/22/computer-glitch-to-blame-for-years-of-raids-on-elderly-couples/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/22/computer-glitch-to-blame-for-years-of-raids-on-elderly-couples/</guid><description><![CDATA[That is the first thing that I said.

The couple should file a lawsuit for harrasment and damages. <br> If one of them dies during another one of these "accidental" raides ( these are elderly people and they could have heart issues) every officer envolved in the raid needs to be charged with murder.By every officer I am not only refering to the ones going thru the door, I am also refering to the ones behind the computers that have not corrected this issue already. <br>If it was my parents or granparents going thru this, you can believe that heads would have rolled already.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[millicanbeth]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 23rd 2010 8:14AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2010/03/22/computer-glitch-to-blame-for-years-of-raids-on-elderly-couples/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2010/03/22/computer-glitch-to-blame-for-years-of-raids-on-elderly-couples/</guid><description><![CDATA[After the 1st time I would got a lawyer.Cant some body help these people out? 50 times is 50 times to many.

Here in New Jersey, licenses get suspended and arrest warrants go out for people who've paid their traffic fines, etc. because the computer says they didn't. Child Support has a new computer system (Kid's First) that scans every payroll in the State for the names of "Obligators" and sends that employer a computer-generated court-order for the amount to be paid--without any consideration that the prescribed amount has ALREADY been paid. It took me a month to convince them that there was a problem and another 2 weeks to get them to FIX it. The short of it is, yes, computers are great for keeping large amounts of information organized but, you cannot program "common sense" so, anytime you take humans out of the decision making process, you are going to see problems like this.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Keith J.
