Description:
Milwaukee, Wisconsin, criminal defense lawyer represents the Defendant charged with homicide.
Antonio D. Brown, 39, a Milwaukee accused of being the gunman in a Dec. 15, 2025, shooting outside Dee’s Elegance Bar in Milwaukee that killed LaTroy Harris and wounded Harris’ nephew.
The Defendant was found using Flock automated license plate recognition cameras .

Flock Safety technology is an automated license plate reader (ALPR) system designed to prevent crime by capturing still images of vehicles, identifying license plates, and recording vehicle attributes (make, color, features) in real-time. These solar-powered, 24/7 cameras use machine learning to create a searchable "vehicle fingerprint," sending alerts to law enforcement if a captured vehicle matches a wanted list, storing data in the cloud for 30 days.
How Flock Technology Works:
Capture and Detection: The camera uses motion activation to photograph the rear of vehicles, identifying license plates and specific vehicle details like roof racks, bumper stickers, or dents.
AI Processing & "Vehicle Fingerprint": Rather than just reading the text of a plate, the AI analyzes the entire vehicle to build a "vehicle fingerprint," which allows for searches even if the plate is missing or covered.
Cloud Analysis and Alerts: Images are transmitted over cellular networks to AWS cloud storage, where they are compared against national (NCIC) and local, state, and child exploitation "hot lists".
Real-time Alerts: When a stolen vehicle or wanted suspect passes a camera, law enforcement receives an instant alert.
Searchable Database: Law enforcement can search by partial plate, vehicle make, or unique characteristics to track suspects.
Key Features and Controversy:
"Curtain of Technology": By linking many cameras in a community, Flock creates a network that makes it difficult for a vehicle to enter or exit a city without being recorded.
Data Sharing: Data can be shared with other law enforcement agencies across the country.
Privacy Concerns: Critics argue that this system creates a massive, warrantless surveillance network, tracking the movements of residents and potentially allowing for misuse, though Flock states they do not use facial recognition and only store data for 30 days.
If you are concerned about security in your area, I can look up:
How to request that a neighborhood or community association install these cameras.
The specific privacy policies and local adoption of this tech in your city.
How to request that your license plate data be deleted from their system.
