SPD officer Amber Harpe was fired for sharing her Flock access with her ICE agent husband. He’s covered the tech industry for over 18 years and knows a thing or two about synths. While he had unauthorized access to the system, Tyler Harpe conducted 983 searches related to 97 license plates, which were overwhelmingly registered to Hispanic drivers, according to Savannah’s local ABC affiliate, WJCL.
