## Resource

Jerome County is shutting down its Flock license plate reader system, redirecting $24,000 annually to boost deputy salaries—because keeping good officers on the force matters more than tech. Sheriff Gary Taylor admits it was a hard call, influenced by public perception and past misconduct, including illegal searches by a former sheriff. The decision came from Taylor himself, who also pushed for clearer state laws to prevent future abuse, calling Idaho’s current rules too weak compared to other states.
