Update: After a packed public forum at the Pleasant Valley Town Hall on Wednesday night, Dutchess County District Attorney Anthony Parisi and Dutchess County Sheriff Kirk Imperati said on Friday morning that they were “agreeing to jointly withdraw their support for Dutchess County’s continued use of Flock Safety technology.”

“We agreed that the appropriate response is to listen to our community and change course,” the officials said in a press release. They will “work with the appropriate county officials to address the steps necessary to discontinue Dutchess County’s use of Flock technology, including existing operational and contractual obligations.”
