Pasco Sheriff Sued for targeted harassment under “predictive policing program”.

Several individuals filed a federal lawsuit yesterday against Paco County Sheriff, Chris Nocco for repeatedly harassing them, not because of what they did, but what they “predicted” a family member might do.

Essentially, what the Pasco Sheriff did was create a “list” and then send his deputies out to their homes to surveil them at all hours of the day and night looking for petty offenses to fine or arrest them for.

When you read through the lawsuit (which is linked below), you might get a tinge of PTSD from your own experience being monitored as a person required to register as a sex offender. No individual should be subjected to harassment like this.

    This is WORSE than being a Pasco RSO.

    I’d rather be subject to residence checks. Damn.

      That’s quite a stunning article against Sheriff Nocco’s questionable practices and policies.

    Why only 4 plaintiffs?
    I’m sure their “list” included many many more.
