ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – The Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office just announced a new technology package it is bringing online to help crime-fighting in the county. The cloud-based service, ‘FUSUS’ describes itself as a “real-time intelligence ecosystem,” and allows business owners and citizens to give BCSO access to their surveillance cameras.
This week on the New Mexico News Podcast, Major Hollie Anderson joins Chris & Gabby to explain how she believes this will streamline criminal investigations and ultimately, help catch criminals quicker. Anderson explains how BCSO will have the ability to watch deputies’ lapel cameras live when needed, and capture surveillance footage from a crime scene using the new system.
How can businesses opt-in? Is this an over-reach of privacy? Those questions and more are addressed in the full discussion above.
