Controversy over Flock License Reading Cameras

The push by the Rensselaer County Sheriff to install Flock license-reading cameras in the town of Poestenkill and at Stewart Stores has focused public attention on the nationwide, controversial program. While the Sheriff promotes it as a public safety measure, civil liberty groups are raising objections. Flock cameras were widely used to track political protestors at the recent No Kings Rally and by ICE seeking to grab immigrants. The cameras are already in place in Troy and the towns of N and E Greenbush. Angela Beallor of the Capital Region Sanctuary Committee talks to Mark Dunlea of Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
