A South Carolina police officer has been fired for allegedly using a Flock camera system to check on an individual with whom she had had a relationship.
Ellie Anna Hammond, 24, was fired on Aug. 3, the Mauldin Police Department said, according to KOCO-TV.
A department representative said no comment on the action would be coming, because it’s “a personnel matter.”
Hammond was fired due to alleged misconduct between March and July, according to documents from the South Carolina Criminal Justice Academy.
During that period, Hammond was accused of accessing the Flock camera system 166 different times to track a vehicle that belonged to an individual with whom she once had a relationship.
Every time the system was accessed, a reason was provided, but the documents said those reasons were bogus.
The reasons were variously listed as a warrant check, traffic infraction, or welfare check.
