Napoleon Jones was illegally arrested by Deputy Shayhorn, and after spending 5 hours in jail, Jones was released without charges and filed a complaint against the department.
During litigation in his lawsuit, it was revealed that a lieutenant in the Waukesha Sheriff’s Department ordered hundreds of Flock searches of Jones’ vehicle, seemingly in retaliation for the filed complaint.
Jones filed a federal lawsuit on December 1, 2025, against Waukesha County, the Village of Lisbon, and Deputy Shayhorn. Jones’ lawsuit alleges violations of the 4th and 14th Amendments - unreasonable search and seizure, false arrest, lack of Probable Cause, and targeted retaliation and electronic tracking after filing a grievance.
Jones shared his story to the Milwaukee Fire & Police Commission (FPC) on Thursday, Sept 3rd, during their public comment on Flock cameras.
Many citizens have made it clear that they don’t want the MPD to use surveillance tools. Hundreds packed the room and the overflow room to deliver statements calling for a ban on all Flock cameras and an end to the surveillance state.
