Holy shit. Spying on your ex-wife is already a massive loser thing to do. Spying on your current wife's *ex-husband* puts you in the running for king loser, biggest loser currently alive.

I had a cop from New England leave a comment on my YouTube video the other day saying that people need to stop resisting Flock because we have nothing to worry about if we are not criminals. He said that no one cared for 9yrs, so why now... as if they told us all what they were doing.
-
zero fuckin surprise here, but thanks to y'all for doing the reporting to get these creeps prosecuted. unfortunately, we'll never catch 'em all -- the abuse isn't worth any trade off for "safety" -- not at all
-
Used exactly as designed by its target audience
-
This is cops....just imagine how the corporations are abusing it. And, they aint about to tell on themselves
-
As a man, it's a little depressing to be reminded on the reg that men, in aggregate, are fucking terrible. Just so shitty. Also ACAB. Those two things are multiplicative, by the way, not additive.

Only like 40% of the time though, everybody should do a search for "40% cops" to see what I mean 🥰
-
No more use of Flock cameras. All need to come down. We cannot continue to live in a dystopian surveillance world where the data is misused. We iced without them before.
-
I’d be interested to know whether or not cops were now using flock to track you because of the story.
-
Don't let anyone tell you that they hire "only the best people" (their words) because it's a lie.
-
Wow, can’t believe a cop would have an ex-wife, let alone 5 cops
-
Then there was a deputy here recently in Indiana who stalked his ex 2k times in 8 months...they didn't realize it till there was an audit. Even though his "reasons" were always the same. Then there's an investigation in northern Indiana/Illinois for similar issues 🙄
-
This an ABUSE of power and it goes on all the time and needs to end. Those officers that abuse their power in this way aren't trustworthy and shouldn't get the coveted power of authority of any sort ‼️
-
Flock makes it dangerous to be a criminal! Or a woman. Or a man who dates a woman a cop likes. Or a man who dates a woman a cop marries later.
-
I appreciate you putting this out there. On one hand, do better, men. On the other hand, do better men.
-
This is a good start. But this should be happening across the country.
-
I keep saying this, no man should have access to any security cameras other than at their house. Men are predators. They use tech to stalk their prey. Men know this and women know this all too well. Fuck this crap! We women are sick of living with non stop danger from men!
-
there have been a *lot* of serial r**ist cops. they just uncovered one who was active for years in Chicago PD, happily collecting his pension in Myrtle Beach. One was on the special victims squad. He’d give talks at the r**e crisis center & at night go on the prowl.
-
I bet if convicted they get very little time if any. These crimes need to carry very severe time in prison to have any affect on the sickness of men stalking.
-
This is almost making me pro-flock. It seems to be the most effective method for getting shitty cops to face consequences.
-
Hopefully a follow up story on why the prosecutors weren’t able to notice this on their own?
-
So we didn’t need a surveillance state to catch the evildoers. Just good reporting.

At least flock cameras are catching criminals... real honey pot situation 🙃
