• Monroe County Sheriff to hold meeting on Flock cameras as other Tri-State agencies weigh usage (wgem.com) — Louisiana's city council has unanimously ended its $30,000 contract with Flock Safety and ordered the removal of the town's five license plate reader cameras, citing growing regional scrutiny of the technology.
