Wisconsin Tracks Man Across State Line with Flock Cameras to Arrest Him for Weed

In a case that raises serious privacy concerns, Wisconsin police used Flock's automated license plate readers to track a man's frequent trips to Michigan, where marijuana is legal, and then pulled him over on his return, claiming they smelled raw marijuana. The man was charged and found guilty of possession. This incident is part of a troubling pattern of police misusing Flock's surveillance network, including cases of stalking romantic interests and ex-partners.
