Bill Maher’s guest explains what happens when Flock cameras get it wrong.
Spoiler: proving your innocence becomes your job.
Jeremy Peters told the story of how cops confronted a woman at her door for “stealing packages.” Their evidence was a Flock camera that caught her car.
The woman didn’t do it. And the only thing that saved her was footage from her own vehicle, because the officer refused to show her the video he claimed to have.
MAHER: “You know what Flock cameras are? I guess everybody does. They’re everywhere, right? And they record everything. They record every car that passes, the license plate. There’s obviously been some things that no one could defend, like cops using them to track their old girlfriends or new girlfriends... They also have stopped a lot of crime. So where do you land on this?”
JEREMY PETERS: “I mean, cops make a lot of mistakes, and so do prosecutors, right? And the story I’ve read about this is talking about a woman, I think in Atlanta (really Colorado), who the cops came to her house and they were like, ‘You robbed packages from this doorstep.’ And she’s like, ‘No, I didn’t.’ They said, ‘Yes, your car is right here. We have it on tape.’”
PETERS: “She had to prove to them, only because she had dash cam footage herself of her vehicle, that she didn’t do it.”
ADDED CONTEXT: The woman is Chrisanna Elser, and it happened in Colorado, not Atlanta.
In September 2025, a Columbine Valley sergeant handed her a summons for a package theft based on Flock footage of her truck.
She asked to see the video. He refused and said: “If you go to court, you can. If you’re going to deny it, I’m not going to extend you any courtesy.”
The officer added, “You know we have cameras in that town. You can’t get a breath of fresh air in or out of that place without us knowing.”
Else found the real theft video herself on Nextdoor, then pulled the footage from her truck, proving she didn’t do it.
The police voided the summons, and the officer later faced disciplinary action.
