The Plan to Make American Crime Obsolete

What It Covers

Colonel Jeffrey Glover and Flock Safety's Rahul Sidhu outline how drones, license plate readers, gunshot detection, and body camera analytics are actively reshaping U.S. law enforcement operations across departments nationwide today.

Key Questions Answered

• •Drone-as-first-responder: Autonomous drones integrated with gunshot detection and license plate readers can pursue suspects onto highways in real time — a capability helicopters cannot sustain without five units airborne continuously, making drone deployment a practical inevitability for departments.
• •Officer burnout detection: Body camera analytics platform Trulio scores officer-public interactions and flags burnout indicators automatically. Arizona DPS pairs this with brain-scan wellness checks via Vitania and mandates sabbaticals at 15- and 25-year career marks to sustain field performance.
• •Intelligence fusion for local safety: Arizona's counterterrorism center collaborates with fusion centers nationally and embeds intelligence officers from Mexico, UAE, and Liberia to share unclassified crime trend data, enabling departments to intercept emerging threats before they materialize locally.
• •Founder entry strategy for public safety: Founders should treat law enforcement adoption as inevitable rather than intimidating, spend time on ride-alongs to learn operational language, and engage directly with department leaders who are actively seeking technology partners to navigate the next decade's skill-set transformation.
