Savannah Officer Fired After Husband, an ICE Agent, Used Her Flock Database Login
A Savannah police officer was terminated after allowing her husband, who works as an ICE agent, to access the department's Flock license-plate reading system through her login credentials. The city of Savannah had not authorized sharing this surveillance data with federal immigration authorities, even though Georgia law may not explicitly prohibit it.
