## Resource

Sheriff’s department deploys smart surveillance cameras that only trigger when a license plate or vehicle matches a “hot list”—and even then, deputies must manually verify each hit. The system logs only vehicle data, wiped after 21 days, with no access to personal info or DMV records. Transparency is key: a public page shows over 550K images captured in the first month—but just 101 were actually reviewed. Access is tightly controlled: only trained staff can view data, and misuse can lead to felony charges. Searches require an active investigation or case number, and every query is logged permanently for accountability. Crucially, the cameras capture only plates and vehicle types—not people. Meanwhile, a 20-year-old, Wesley Jackson, was arrested for allegedly damaging two cameras in June, facing charges including vandalism of first responder equipment and conspiracy. The department vows to prosecute anyone who harms county property or commits crimes against the system. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
