A now-former Savannah police officer gave her husband, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent, access to the police department’s Flock license plate reader system, which he used to conduct hundreds of searches tied to ICE investigations, according to newly obtained documents reviewed by WJCL 22 News.

The records show Amber Harpe's husband did not have his own Flock account through the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Harpe acknowledged giving him her Savannah Police Department username and password.

Her husband told investigators he used the account to locate ICE targets who had active arrest warrants. He said every search was related to his federal law enforcement work and denied using the system for personal reasons.

The Savannah Police Department fired Harpe after concluding that she knowingly gave an unauthorized person access to a sensitive police system, violated department policy and compromised safeguards designed to track who was using law enforcement data.

Harpe’s case was part of a wider SPD investigation into alleged Flock misuse. Several other former employees were accused of searching for romantic partners, former partners or other people for personal reasons.
