Cop called BLM protester possible antifa while running photo. Washington County sheriff promptly shut off access.
Months before an intoxicated off-duty Forest Grove police officer acted threateningly toward a family flying a Black Lives Matter flag, Washington County authorities determined that another Forest Grove police officer unlawfully ran a peaceful BLM protester through facial recognition technology.
The incident last June, which was not reported publicly at the time, led the Washington County Sheriff s Office, which operated the program, to immediately shut off Forest Grove police access.
Forest Grove Chief Henry Reimann went public about the incident earlier this month after the Pamplin Media Group sent him questions about it by email. He posted a letter from the chief on the city s website saying the facial recognition incident was an example of Forest Grove officials identifying and addressing mistakes.
