Savannah Police Officer Fired for Sharing Flock Login with ICE Agent Husband
A Savannah police officer, Amber Harpe, was fired in August after an internal investigation revealed she had shared her login credentials to the department's surveillance platform, Flock, with her husband, Tyler Harpe, who works as an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent. The Savannah Police Department confirmed that sharing access violated its security protocols since it does not share Flock data with ICE. During his unauthorized access, Tyler Harpe conducted 983 searches related to 97 license plates, most of which were registered to Hispanic drivers, according to local media reports. The couple defended their actions by stating the searches were for law-enforcement purposes and denied any personal gain.
