Weighing investments in police technology cost and its benefits to citizens – WAND (Decatur)

Decatur, Springfield and Champaign city councils have all voted to lease Flock cameras, or Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPRs), for their police departments; Springfield and Champaign Police also have contracts for gunshot detection equipment. "We might not see that as a total crime decrease, but we are making arrests off of Flock," Lt. Scott Rosenbury, of the Decatur Police Department, explained.
