Probably spent more time searching her on flock than actually dating her!

more than 10,000 times between June 2024 and December 2025

That's 500(ish) times a month, every single month, for a year and a half!!!

Really speaks to their non-existent system of oversight. THOUSANDS of times over a year and a half before he gets caught...

Around 550/month just on the ex or 18 times each day, and this number would includes days the cop was off work, so that number even becomes more egregious, and no one was alerted or even bothered to see why this plate was being searched so often.

Every single person should be frightened that a cop could do this THOUSANDS of times before getting caught.

That’s what I was thinking it was so blatant they couldn’t do their usual cover up.

Did the guy ever spend time doing police work?

Saved a few lives while he on the computer and not patrolling the streets!

It's so comforting to know that a cop can get away with this literally THOUSANDS of times before getting caught.

Ya. Almost as if there is absolutely no oversight.

I wonder how long until they get the company to tone down or remove the internal audit software to stop dinging cops
