Officer Accused of Tracking Ex via Flock | Boston News

A New Bedford police officer is under fire after a former girlfriend accused him of using Flock Safety cameras to track her movements post-breakup, leading to an abuse prevention order and a firearm ban. The department has paused Flock use, launched an internal probe, and placed the officer on administrative leave while reviewing policies. This case mirrors similar incidents in Milwaukee, fueling national privacy concerns. In response, Flock Safety will require all law enforcement searches to be tied to active investigations. The New Bedford Police Union stressed that allegations aren’t proof of wrongdoing and called for fair due process for the officer involved.
