Menasha, Wisconsin officer Cristian Morales used department's Flock system to track ex-girlfriend's car
On October 9, 2025, Menasha, Wisconsin police officer Cristian Morales, 31, ran five Flock Safety license-plate-reader searches for his ex-girlfriend's vehicles while off duty and using his personal phone, logging the reason as a "welfare" check with no case number attached, after the two had broken up the previous month. Morales was arrested and charged with felony misconduct in office on January 7, 2026, after his ex-girlfriend reported her suspicions to Appleton police; he was placed on administrative leave, resigned from the department later that month, and was ultimately convicted and sentenced to six months in jail and three years of probation.
