Description

  The present invention relates to a crime reporting system, server, and program for reporting crimes.

  Recently, troubles related to crimes occurring in train cars and station premises have frequently occurred. Crimes that occur in such places range from light crimes such as molesters, pick-ups, and placements to heavy crimes such as damage to equipment and injury cases caused by fights.

  However, despite the above crimes occurring in crowded places, the victims or witnesses do not report, so there are problems that the number of reports is less than the actual number of crimes, and witness testimony The number of suspects arrested is small compared to the actual number of crimes due to the small number of cases. There are many reasons why victims or witnesses do not report because they are embarrassed to speak in crowds.

  For example, taking a molester crime as an example, the number of crimes perpetrated by the police is about 10,000 per year, but it is considered from the survey results that about half of women have suffered from a molester. And about 30 million molester crimes should have occurred in the past 50 years. Then, about 600,000 molester crimes occur annually by simple calculation, but considering the number of cases known by the police, the remaining 590,000 cases are not reported and the victims are crying It will be.

  Up to now, various methods have been adopted for the purpose of deterring crimes in train cars and on station premises, such as putting in private clothes by police officers, looking around, and installing security cameras.

  However, the arrest of the suspect was based on the arrest of the current criminal, so even if the moment of the crime occurred was captured with a security camera, the suspect could not be secured on the spot. Also, even if police officers scrutinized and looked around, the number of suspects arrested did not increase because it was unlikely that they would be in the place where the crime occurred. Even if the suspects can be secured, if the suspect's self-sufficiency cannot be obtained, the testimony of the witness will be important, but as mentioned above, the important witnesses do not readily mention themselves, It did not lead to arrest of the suspect.

  Therefore, even if the above method is adopted, there is a problem that the number of reports and the number of suspects arrested for the actual number of crimes is small because it is not possible to grasp the suspect's arrest, or even the fact that the crime occurred. Is not solved.

  Thus, recently, various techniques for solving the above problems have been disclosed (for example, see Patent Document 1). In the system described in this patent document 1, when an emergency report indicating that an incident or a crime has occurred is received, the base station where the reporter's mobile terminal is located is located in the area where the base station is located. A server is provided for requesting collection of subscriber information relating to the subscriber of the other mobile terminal and collecting subscriber information relating to the subscriber of the other mobile terminal.

Therefore, according to the system described in Patent Document 1, it is possible to collect the subscriber numbers of subscribers who are located around the place where the crime occurred and are likely to have witnessed the crime. It is thought that the number of reports and the number of suspects arrested can be increased.
JP 2003-229773 A

  However, in the system described in Patent Document 1, even if the subscriber number of the subscriber who is likely to have witnessed the crime can be collected, the witness testimony is requested by contacting the subscriber from the time of the crime. If the time lag between is long, the memory of the witness will also fade. Therefore, there is a possibility that accurate witness testimony that leads to the arrest of the suspect may not be obtained, in which case the number of suspects arrested will not increase.

  In addition, in the system described in Patent Document 1, since the notification that an incident or a crime has occurred is made by the 110th report by telephone, as described above, it is embarrassing to speak up in the crowd. The number of reports is unlikely to increase for reasons such as Therefore, not only will it not lead to an increase in the number of reported crimes, but it will also reduce the chances of using this system, so it will not lead to an increase in the number of suspects arrested.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a crime reporting system, server, and program capable of increasing the number of reports and the number of suspects arrested with respect to the number of crime occurrences.

  In order to achieve the above object, the crime reporting system of the present invention is a crime reporting system comprising a plurality of mobile terminals and a server that receives reports on crimes from the plurality of mobile terminals. Site management means for operating on the network a site for receiving reports of damage information or sighting information related to the crime from a mobile terminal, and information on damage information or sighting information related to the crime on the site operated by the site management means When the report is received, the location information of the mobile terminal that made the report is acquired, and the search means for searching for other mobile terminals located around the mobile terminal that made the report and the site management means operate. Search using the search means when a report of damage information or sighting information related to the crime is received on the site Notifies the occurrence information of the crime was via the network to the other mobile terminal, and having a notification means for requesting a reply sightings relating to the offense.

  According to this configuration, the victim or witness who owns the mobile terminal can report on the site using the mobile terminal without raising a voice over the phone, so the number of reports is expected to increase. it can. In addition, because a witness testimony is immediately sought for a mobile terminal owned by a person who is located near the whistleblower's mobile terminal and who may have witnessed a crime, a crime occurred from the actual witness. There is a high possibility of obtaining accurate witness testimony that will lead to the arrest of the suspect before the memory of the time fades, which can be expected to increase the number of suspects arrested.

  In addition, the information processing apparatus further includes a related organization terminal installed in a related organization having jurisdiction over a predetermined location, and the notification unit is configured to control the predetermined unit managed by the related organization on a site operated by the site management unit. It is good also as notifying the said crime occurrence information via the said network with respect to the said related organization terminal at the time of receiving the report of the damage information regarding the crime that occurred in the place, or sighting information.

  According to this configuration, since the crime occurrence information is immediately notified to the police and other related organizations that have jurisdiction over the place where the crime occurred, this notification will request the dispatch of the related organizations as necessary. For example, it is highly possible to secure suspects, which can be expected to increase the number of suspects arrested.

  In addition, when the server receives a report of damage information or sighting information related to the crime on the site operated by the site management means, and the crime response in response to a sighting information return request from the notification means When the report of the sighting information regarding is received, it is good also as having the point management means which adds a point to the owner of the mobile terminal which made the report, and manages the number of points.

  According to this configuration, since points are added to the victim or witness who reported using the mobile terminal, if the privilege is given according to the number of points, the victim or witness gets points. Therefore, the number of reports from victims or witnesses can be expected to increase further.

Since the present invention is configured as described above, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) Increasing the number of reports Since the site that accepts reports from victims or witnesses is operated, the victims or witnesses can make reports on the site without calling out by phone, This can be expected to increase the number of reports.

In addition, since the points are added when the victim or witness has reported, if the privilege is given according to the number of points, the number of reports from the victim or witness will increase further. I can expect.
(2) Increase in arrest of suspects When a crime occurs and the victim or witness reports it, the witness arrests before the memory of the occurrence of the criminal situation has faded by soliciting witness testimony immediately The possibility of collecting accurate eyewitness testimony that leads to a high risk is high, and by requesting the police and other relevant agencies to be dispatched immediately as necessary, the possibility of securing suspects is increased. The effect of increasing the number of suspects arrested can be expected.
(3) Understanding the number of crimes / location of occurrence Increasing the number of reported cases makes it possible to collect information such as the location of crimes and the number of crimes that were unclear because there were no reports before. The effect that it becomes a material with a large suppression measure is expected.
(4) Crime deterrence As this system becomes widely known nationwide, it is said that “it may be reported” just by looking at a person who has (operates) a mobile terminal. Since a sense can be planted, the effect of being able to deter crime can be expected.

  The best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. Here, a case will be described as an example in which a crime is reported by applying the crime reporting system of the present invention when a crime occurs in a train car or a station.

Referring to FIG. 1, a crime reporting system according to an embodiment of the present invention is related to a mobile terminal 10 ₁ to 10 _n owned by a user, a server 20 installed in a center, and a train car and a station premises.

  The server 20 includes a communication unit 21, a site management unit 22, a personal information management unit 23, a point management unit 24, a search unit 25, a notification unit 26, and a user database 27.

The communication unit 21 is an interface part with the network 40, and communicates with the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n and the related organization terminals 30 ₁ to 30 _m via the network 40.

The site management unit 22 operates a website for the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n on the network 40. On this website, users of mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n provide damage information or witness information when a crime occurs in a train car or a station for a user to enter personal information when subscribing to the system. Includes a site for reporting.

The personal information management unit 23 registers, in the user database 27, personal information input on the website by the users of the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n when joining the system, and manages each user.

When the user of the mobile terminal 10 ₁ to 10 _n reports damage information or sighting information on the website when a crime occurs in a train car or a station, the point management unit 24 adds points to the user. The number of points is registered in the user database 27 and managed for each user. Although details will be described later, when the user of the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n reports the sighting information in response to the sighting information return request from the notification unit 26, the point management unit 24 notifies the user. Add points. In the center where the server 20 is installed, some privilege (such as gifting) is given to the user according to the number of points managed by the point management unit 24.

The search unit 25 moves the user who became the reporter when the user of the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n reports damage information or sighting information on the website when a crime occurs in the train car or the station premises. While acquiring the location information of a terminal, based on the location information of a reporter's mobile terminal, the mobile terminal of the user who is located in the vicinity of a reporter and who seems to have witnessed the crime is searched.

In addition, there is no restriction | limiting in particular about the method of acquiring the positional information on a reporter's mobile terminal in the search part 25, and the method of searching the user's mobile terminal around a reporter, A well-known method can be used. For example, the search unit 25 can search for mobile terminals of users around the reporter using the technique described in Patent Document 1. In this case, when any _{one of} the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n accesses the server 20 on the network 40 via a base station (not shown) and makes a report on the Web site, A search for mobile terminals of users who are subscribed to the system among users existing in the area is requested, and information on mobile terminals around the caller is obtained based on the response content from the base station. In addition, the search unit 25 transmits the location information acquired by the mobile terminal using GPS (Global Positioning System) or the like at the time of reporting on the website in order to acquire location information of the reporter's mobile terminal. It is also possible to use a method such as

The notification unit 26 confirms that the user of the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n has accepted the notification when the user reports the damage information or the sighting information on the website when a crime occurs in the train car or the station premises. To the mobile terminal of the reporter via the network 40. At the same time, the mobile terminal in the vicinity of the reporter searched by the search unit 25 is notified of the crime occurrence information via the network 40 by e-mail, urging the patient to alert and requesting the return of the sighting information. . At the same time, among the related agency terminals 30 ₁ to 30 _m , a crime occurs via the network 40 to the station where the crime occurred, the nearest station of the crime occurrence place or the related agency terminal installed at the railway police. Notify the information by e-mail and request the dispatch of station staff and railway police if necessary.

Hereinafter, the operation of the crime reporting system shown in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. Here, the mobile terminal 10 ₁ users, whether victims of crime occurring in a train car or in a station yard, or be described as witnessed the crime.

Referring to FIG. 2, the user of the mobile terminal 10 _1, when witnessed or when the crime was victims of crime occurring in a train car or in a station yard, first, using the mobile terminal 10 _1, the network 40 The server 20 is accessed via (step 201).

Then, the site management unit 22 in the server 20 _first transmits a top page screen of the website as shown in FIG. 3 to the mobile terminal 101 via the network 40 to prompt the user to log in to the system. , to select which of the damage report or witnessed Problem transmit a screen for selecting the report contents shown in FIG. 4 to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ via the network 40. Here, if the damage report is selected, prompting registration of damage information and transmit the damage information registration screen as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ via the network 40, whereas, in Problem witnessed in some cases, 7, prompting the registration sightings by sending to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ via the network 40 sightings registration screen as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 (step 202).

Next, the user of the mobile terminal 10 _1, the server 20 from damage information Web site that has been transmitted to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ via the network 40 registration screen or sighting registration screen, registers the damage information or sighting As a result, the damage information or sighting information is reported to the server 20 via the network 40 (step 203). At this time, the point management unit 24 adds the point to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ of the user who report damage information or sighting.

When the search unit 25 receives a report of damage information or sighting information from the user of the mobile terminal 10 ₁ on the website, the search unit 25 acquires the location information of the mobile terminal 10 ₁ of the user who became the reporter and moves based on the position information of the terminal 10 _1, located in the caller, to search for the mobile terminal of the user that may have witnessed the crime (step 204).

The notification unit 26 is based on the location information of the reporter's mobile terminal 10 ₁ acquired by the search unit 25 when a report of damage information or sighting information from the user of the mobile terminal 10 ₁ is received on the website. Of the related agency terminals 30 ₁ to 30 _m , the crime occurrence information is notified via the network 40 to the station where the crime occurred, the nearest station of the crime occurrence place or the related agency terminal installed in the railway police. The station staff and the railway police are requested as necessary (step 205). For example, if the notification unit 26 has received a report of a molester crime that occurred in a train car, the notification unit 26 transmits an e-mail to the effect that a molester crime has occurred in the train car to the relevant related organization terminal, Wait at the next stop on the train and ask them to secure suspects.

At the same time, the notification unit 26, a confirmation email notification receiving, via the network 40 to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ of the caller (step 206). For example, the notification unit 26, when ready for notification of public nuisance crime occurring in a train in the vehicle, a confirmation email contents shown in FIG. 10, and transmitted to the mobile terminal 10 ₁ of the caller, Encourage them to report to station staff and railway police who are waiting at the next stop.

Furthermore, at the same time, the notification unit 26 sends crime occurrence information to the mobile terminals of the users around the reporter searched by the search unit 25 among the mobile terminals 10 ₂ to 10 _n via the network 40. Notification is made by e-mail, alerting and witness testimony is invited (step 207). For example, when the notification unit 26 has received a report of a molester crime that has occurred in a train car, the notification unit 26 transmits an e-mail having the contents shown in FIG. 11 to the mobile terminals of the users around the reporter. Urges vigilance and requests a return of sighting information.

Thereafter, of the mobile terminals 10 ₂ to 10 _n , if the user of the mobile terminal requested to return the sighting information in step 207, if the crime is actually witnessed, the sighting information is sent by e-mail in response to the reply request. (Step 208). At this time, the point management unit 24 adds points to the user of the mobile terminal that has reported the sighting information.

  Therefore, for example, when a molester crime occurs in a train car, it can be expected that a suspect is secured at the next stop station of the train and arrested with the suspect's self-confidence. Even if the suspect's self-sufficiency cannot be obtained, it can be expected to obtain an accurate witness testimony linked to the suspect's arrest by requesting a return of the sighting information.

In this embodiment as described above, in the server 20, since the mobile terminal 10 ₁ to 10 _n are operating a Web site that receive reports about crime, the user of the mobile terminal 10 ₁ to 10 _n is voice by phone It is possible to make a report on the Web site of the server 20 without increasing the number, and it can be expected that the number of reports increases.

In addition, when the server 20 receives a report about a crime from the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n , it immediately seeks a witness testimony for a mobile terminal of a user who is located near the reporter and who seems to have witnessed the crime As a result, the possibility of collecting accurate eyewitness testimony that will lead to the arrest of suspects before the memory of the crime occurrence situation has faded becomes high, and if necessary, it is necessary for the related terminals 30 ₁ to 30 _n such as railway police. It is expected that the number of suspects arrested will increase because there is a high possibility that the suspects can be secured by immediately requesting the dispatch of the railway police.

Further, in the server 20, when a crime report is received from the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n , points are added, and the center gives some privilege according to the number of points, so the mobile terminals 10 ₁ to 10 _n It is expected that there will be more opportunities for users to report to get points, and the number of reports can be expected to increase further.

  In the present embodiment, the case where a notification is made by applying the present invention when a crime occurs in a train car or a station has been described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to this, The present invention can be applied to a crime at a place to make a report. In that case, a terminal of a related organization may be appropriately installed in a related organization having jurisdiction over the target location (for example, an airport police if the target location is an airport, or a bus company if the target location is in a bus vehicle).

  In the present invention, the processing in the server 20 is recorded on a recording medium readable by the server 20 in addition to the above-described dedicated hardware, and the program for realizing the function is recorded on the recording medium. It is also possible to read the program recorded on the server 20 and execute it.
