## Notes
- Court Bewley's "Flock is an invaluable tool… the most widely used technology among all ranks and assignments" comment on the September 9 memo is one of the corpus's clearest qualitative endorsements of Flock by an LRPD line officer.
- The recurring procurement-authoring role makes Lt. Bewley a key LRPD-side technology-procurement decision-maker, despite the relatively junior rank — she is the operational lead translating technology requirements into procurement requests for the Headquarters Division and Asst Chief approval chain.
- **Not** the same person as historical Chief [[Wayne Bewley]] (the chief named on the 2022 Fusus contract). Whether the two are familially related is not documented in the corpus.
- Badge #33426 — the only documented LRPD badge number in the corpus.
