Notes
Action News Jax reported on 1 September 2026 that Sheriff H.D. DeLoach ordered the office's 18 cameras on major roadways, first placed in 2022, disconnected immediately and removed within 30 days, and said he would cancel the contract. DeLoach said discontinuing the programme was the most responsible course. WCJB reported on 1 September 2026 that officials said use of all the office's licence plate reader cameras would be discontinued, a decision made hours before the Florida Department of Transportation order was publicly released. Neither article names the vendor.
