Can we also start firing them for misuse related to police activity? Thanks.

Follow-up article, probably: Neighboring county hires 6 new police officers after own officers under investigation for misconduct all take new roles in Savannah PD.

It's sort of weird that these people simply cannot get used to digital audit trails. It's downright scary, though, to think that this is just the consequence of them continuing to do what they did before, but without audit.

In other words, they have probably been stalking people illegally for decades, but now they get caught.

That information is literally the first line in the article. And it's completely relevant to the article that their civilian employees (who should also be held to a high standard of ethics) also abused Flock access.

it’s a buried lede in terms of impact - “4 cops & 2 staff fired” would hit harder, no?
