Kokomo officer charged over alleged Flock camera misuse

What happened

A Kokomo police officer has been charged in connection with an allegation that the officer used Flock cameras to track an ex-spouse.

Flock cameras are used by law-enforcement agencies to capture vehicle information. The allegation described in the charge involves using that system for personal tracking rather than a police purpose.

What the charge means

A criminal charge is an accusation. It does not establish that the officer committed the alleged conduct, and the case must proceed through the court system.

The officer’s name, the specific charge, the filing date and the next court date are not stated here.

What to watch

The case will move through the court process, where the charge, court filings and any response from the officer can be reviewed. Kokomo officials may also address whether the officer’s access to Flock cameras has been restricted or reviewed.
