License Plate System Under Fire | Charlotte News

Description

Mooresville Police are cracking down on misuse of their license plate reader system, Flock, after an officer was arrested for allegedly tracking her boyfriend’s ex-wife — a search flagged by the system. The department had previously tweaked Flock rules to prevent officers from swarming the same scene, but now they’re requiring every database search to be tied to an active case number and logged with a specific reason — even for multiple searches on the same vehicle. While no other officers have been charged, internal reviews found lapses in logging, often due to laziness or rushing. Chief Ron Campurciani admits no system is foolproof, but says these new safeguards make misuse much harder.
