Houston Cop Indicted for Planting GPS Tracker

A Houston cop faces misdemeanor charges for allegedly planting a GPS tracker on a suspect’s truck without a warrant—caught on video by two brothers under FBI investigation. The officer admitted in writing to using a “personally owned tracking device” as an “investigative ploy,” while his supervisor received a 15-day suspension. This marks the first criminal charge against a Houston officer for an on-duty incident since the Harding Street raid, underscoring the critical need for legal compliance—even when officers believe they’re acting in the interest of justice.
