CHARLOTTE, N.C. – The son of a Huntersville Town Commissioner is behind bars, charged with first-degree murder. An arrest affidavit reveals that 21-year-old Evin Quarles allegedly targeted 17-year-old Cameron Brice on Kittansett Drive in the University Area, telling the teen “we have smoke” before firing four shots.

Police tracked Quarles’ Ford F-150 using Flock license plate readers as he fled the scene. Detectives say they later obtained a third-party confession before Quarles turned himself in. He is the son of Town Commissioner Edwin Quarles.

What's your point? What did police do before them? .....a lot of them here are coming down.

It sounds as though they did not help the cops catch him anyways....

…. Yeah … this is fairly weak lol

… the bigger story is

… why are these people holding any office at all ? lol

Cameras everywhere now.
Cant even hang a rat at midnight in your back yard,youll be all over facebook next day.

This Flock bs is just the latest of something to whine about. Ironically, everyone who cries about Flock online does so on a device thats been tracking and listening to them for years. All while probably giving them brain cancer.

Meanwhile, local PDs here are letting go peeping toms left and and right. Peachtree City just referred two officers to the GBI for flock misuse.

Flock Cameras have been proven to be abused by Police everywhere. That is a fact. Milwaukee Officers were caught using them to track exes.

My security camera (game camera) just caught someone in his underwear and knee boots, with two dogs, carrying a long gun across my front yard. Oh wait, that was me, with a catch pole carrying a possum the dogs caught eating the cat’s food. Thank goodness it was blurry

Well you will know if big brother was watching somewhere when the cops show up sniffing around.

Good. This will weed put some idiots nationwide.

"flock" why is it called that? Flock of birds...Is there a meaning to the word that I do not know???

When you say 'I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide,' that's no different than saying 'I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say

Simply because you are following the law, doesn't mean that you'll be exempt from governmental interference in your private life


Edward Snowden quote

So many homeowners and businesses have video surveillance cameras now days. They have been helpful in solving crimes. Watch the show, See No Evil sometime. You'll see what I mean.

There called flock cameras because there clustered in areas like a flock of birds so they can cover everything




Yes and a lot of home owners also have things like ring cameras or even surveillance cameras but unlike flock cameras if they want access to the video from those they genuinely need to obtain a warrant unlike flock cameras where they generally have open access to whatever is on them, the same need to obtain a warrant gos for an information gathered and stored on your cell phone or other devices

To me it’s no different then if the police had open access to your cell phone or computer information without need of a warrant

A Great Show

If the dude had not been seen on the Flock camera, I doubt he would have surrendered to the police. The camera took a murderer off the streets in short order.

That's speculation......also, was it a man or a dude?

The problem with flock is that there is a contract signed for there use and what happens to the data that's stored. Many have been found to not following the contract that was signed.

Thats been nation wide not an isolated event.

It shouldn't surprise me given the average age of the fourm but it dose how many are so happy and not only willing to live in a surveillance state but celebrate and promote it.

I guess its true those willing to give up rights for the illusion of safty don't deserve it to begain with.

People will doom themselves and wonder what happened when it's to late.

Lots of useful things are subject to mis use by the large number of Immoral people out there in all walks of life.
Cant ban all useful things because of an immoral society.Have to address the root problem why so many people today have no morals.

Tru dat boco

No but if you want to track somone remotely it requires a warrant. Now if the government follows you with people and your in public that is legal. If they put a tracker on your car they would need a warrant.

Yet these data bases are private 3rd party and requires no warrant to access them. Not only have they been misused they have also miss identified people causing them a ton of trouble and time wasted proving their innocence.

Anyone that says you got nothing to hide you have nothing to wory about has never had to deal with our court system.

Just hike up your hoodie and pull up your covid mask-No worries.

They track your vehicle.

I thought you rode a horse,lol.

I have not had horses for years. I would love to again but not sure if would be up to the work involved i. Daily care and dont want to push that off on Anyone else. Honestly I think a mule may be a beter fit for me. Especially if its saddle broke and can pull a wagon.

A local city is terminating their contract with Flock, and several other jurisdictions are reviewing theirs.

I wonder if the "back the blue" crowd ever sits still long enough to give serious thought to the growing tally of officers willing to abuse their privilege of using flock cameras and extrapolate it all out to just what else are they abusing?

Makes one wonder doesn't it?

Who really are the criminals needing constant surveillance?

Ripe for abuse by egomaniacs...
