The breach, exposed by an outside tip, has led to her suspension and misdemeanor charges for falsifying records and official misconduct. The department has tightened access to the system and apologized, vowing accountability. Another command staff member is on administrative leave as an internal probe continues. This case underscores the urgent need for oversight in surveillance tech, as misuse erodes public trust and mirrors similar nationwide incidents.
