Flock Safety and Coweta County deputies sued over alleged retaliatory camera surveillance
Tyler Murkerson has filed a lawsuit against Flock Safety, Coweta County, Sheriff Lenn Wood, two named deputies, and three unidentified operators, alleging deputies used Flock's automated license plate reader network to track his vehicle while he had a separate civil rights suit pending against the sheriff's office. Audit records cited in the suit show a 197-day surveillance period on his car and five searches spanning over 6,000 camera networks nationwide, two of which are tied to named deputies. The suit seeks class-action status on behalf of others whose vehicles were searched without documented investigative justification.
