Flock Camera Data Landed Innocent Woman in Jail for 13 Days
Original: One Piece of Flock Camera Data Put This Innocent Woman in Jail for 13 Days
Lindsey Isaacs of Palm Beach, Florida was arrested and jailed for 13 days over a vehicular homicide after investigators relied on a single Flock automated license plate reader hit that supposedly placed her car at the scene. She has since filed a lawsuit, saying the data was wrong and she is innocent. The case is drawing attention to how little corroboration police need before automated surveillance data leads to an arrest, and to the broader risks of license plate tracking networks.
Why now: People are debating the dangers of automated license plate surveillance after a single faulty camera reading led to an innocent woman's wrongful imprisonment.
