Stop the LAPD Secret Files, Surveillance, Spying, and Infiltration Programs


Stop the LAPD Secret Files, Surveillance, Spying, and Infiltration Programs
The Issue

Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) initiative enforced through Special Order (SO) 17 and the iWATCH – See Something, Say Something program.
The LAPD SAR program creates a culture of fear and suspicion, criminalizes innocent behavior, promotes racial profiling, invades privacy, is not
evidence based, and wastes resources.
