But flock hit is the entire reason for the cops to go arrest them. And you’re right if they did careful assessment of other flock camera data, even the data of this particular flock camera they would have known this car was 5 miles away 23 seconds later. The whole point being misusing/abusing flock data to wrongly jail people and that is precisely what happened here. Flock is the center of this story.

Tack on a reckless driving charge and a speeding ticket.

782.6mph is way too fast.

As long as the vehicle traveling above Mach 1 remains a ground vehicle, the FAA won't get involved.

Police would just argue that the second datapoint was wrong.

Schrodinger's flock - the 'hit' helped us catch the criminals and the hit is wrong. but we are going ahead with prosecution nonetheless.

Obviously so, maybe society should hire criminals to catch the police.
