Virtual event: Uncovering misuse of Flock cameras with USA Today’s Kenny Jacoby

Join us on Wednesday, September 23 from 6–7 p.m. for a virtual conversation with USA TODAY investigative reporter Kenny Jacoby.
A nationwide USA TODAY investigation examined the use of Flock license-plate readers by law enforcement and uncovered potentially improper searches across the country, including a Sarasota case involving an officer who was later fired and arrested.
Kenny Jacoby, investigative reporter for USA TODAY, will join Emily Le Coz, Executive Editor-in-Chief of Suncoast Searchlight, for a behind-the-scenes conversation about how the investigation came together, what the reporting uncovered and the questions it raises about surveillance, privacy and oversight.
Audience Q&A included.
Bring your questions and hear directly from the journalist who helped uncover the story.
