Amber Harpe was fired following an internal investigation. Her husband, Tyler Harpe, ran 983 searches tied to 97 license plates while using her credentials, according to local broadcast reporting. The plates were overwhelmingly registered to Hispanic drivers. That works out to about 10 searches per plate.\n\nThe Savannah Police Department said it does not share its Flock data with ICE, and that sharing a login violated its security protocols. The Harpes defended their actions, saying they did not use the access for personal reasons.\n\nThe episode shows how a data-sharing policy can be sidestepped without any data being formally shared. A department can refuse a federal agency access, but if one officer's credentials pass to someone inside that agency, the refusal exists on paper only. Nothing had to be hacked. A borrowed password did the work.\n\nPublic reporting has not yet explained why those 97 plates were searched or whether any search fed an immigration case. Those gaps leave the larger question open. For departments that promise their plate data stays local, the practical test is whether they can show, account by account, who searched for what.","[\"flock\",\"license-plate-readers\",\"ice\",\"surveillance\"]","2026-10-18T22:20:53.000Z","2026-10-18T22:51:34.640Z","2026-10-18T22:51:34.865Z","published",null,[24],{"id":25,"reviewer":26,"round":27,"reason":28,"status":29},"editor-r1","editor",1,"The facts match the source, but the draft twice says 'the source does not say', which reads like a leftover sourcing note and admits the story is incomplete; remove those lines or reframe them as what is publicly unknown, briefly explain what Flock is, add the year of the firing, and drop the speculative 'repeated lookups' inference or clearly tie it to the numbers without implying intent.","resolved","policy",[32,33,34,35],"flock","license-plate-readers","ice","surveillance",[37],{"name":38,"url":39},"The Verge","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.theverge.com\u002Fpolicy\u002F1013573\u002Fspd-officer-fired-flock-ice-husband",0,{"sections":42},[43,48,53,56,61,66,71,76,81,86,91,96,101,106],{"name":44,"slug":45,"count":46,"latest_published_at":47},"AI","ai",7040,"2026-10-18T11:00:00.000Z",{"name":49,"slug":50,"count":51,"latest_published_at":52},"Security","security",1004,"2026-10-18T12:05:00.000Z",{"name":54,"slug":30,"count":55,"latest_published_at":18},"Policy",541,{"name":57,"slug":58,"count":59,"latest_published_at":60},"Deals","deals",524,"2026-10-17T07:00:00.000Z",{"name":62,"slug":63,"count":64,"latest_published_at":65},"Hardware","hardware",266,"2026-10-18T16:03:01.000Z",{"name":67,"slug":68,"count":69,"latest_published_at":70},"Consumer Tech","consumer-tech",238,"2026-10-18T14:54:31.000Z",{"name":72,"slug":73,"count":74,"latest_published_at":75},"Science","science",204,"2026-10-18T18:19:53.000Z",{"name":77,"slug":78,"count":79,"latest_published_at":80},"Startups","startups",134,"2026-10-18T12:02:57.000Z",{"name":82,"slug":83,"count":84,"latest_published_at":85},"Software","software",129,"2026-10-15T22:21:06.000Z",{"name":87,"slug":88,"count":89,"latest_published_at":90},"Dev Tools","dev-tools",118,"2026-10-16T15:52:39.000Z",{"name":92,"slug":93,"count":94,"latest_published_at":95},"General","general",83,"2026-10-18T15:02:19.000Z",{"name":97,"slug":98,"count":99,"latest_published_at":100},"Gaming","gaming",77,"2026-10-17T16:59:39.000Z",{"name":102,"slug":103,"count":104,"latest_published_at":105},"Reviews","reviews",37,"2026-10-14T10:00:00.000Z",{"name":107,"slug":108,"count":109,"latest_published_at":110},"How-To","how-to",8,"2026-10-05T09:00:00.000Z"]
