Interesting thing about that statement. Its been over 20yrs since I've heard a LEO refer to anyone as a person... seems is usually either Suspect or Subject. Good point.
The default term used by police should be "citizen."
Seems in the news around here they like the term "Person of Interest" rather than Suspect or Subject.

By the time it gets to the news, that's legit. What I hate hearing is hearing dispatchers say, "Subject requesting contact" or cops saying "I'll be out with a subject flagging me down." Makes me want to ask them, "Who are you, the fucking King?"

Not what I expected. Truly commendable.

How is capitalization relayed when spoken?

Still seems to discount non-citizens. Granted, I ask this because that's something that was being done wrt like CoPs preventing non-citizens from being granted gun permits in MA.
