Flock hosts a transparency portal for this agency at transparency.flocksafety.com/edinburg-tx-pd. Everything below is what that page publishes, read against the 1438 other portals in New Mexico, Texas and Arizona. A portal is a rolling 30-day window with no history: the figures are true of the day they were read and cannot be added up.
Not yet read at source by this project. These figures come from EyesOnFlock, an independent aggregator, as of 2026-09-04. Treat them as a second-hand reading: they are good enough to compare portals and to raise a question, and not good enough to quote as this department’s own words. The link above is the department’s page.
What the portal publishes
This agency publishes all five headline figures the template offers.
3,233 searches, published by the department itself. Across the three states only 38 of 1439 agencies publish this at all, and the logs do not share a schema: there are 10 different column sets among the 38, so what one department discloses is not what the next one does.
Immigration enforcement, traffic enforcement, harassment or intimidation, usage based solely on a protected class (i.e. race, sex, religion), Personal use.
Flock’s template offers five: immigration enforcement, traffic enforcement, harassment or intimidation, use based solely on a protected class, and personal use. Comparing portals is the only way to see which agency edited that list, because a single portal reads as though its list were the standard one.
This portal among the others
What a portal cannot tell you is what the department signed. For one agency in these three states this project holds the contracts, the statement of work, the drone agreement, the council minutes and three radio broadcasts, and reads them against the portal line by line: Las Cruces, New Mexico. The pattern that read found - a camera count defined to exclude the video cameras, a withheld search audit, a sharing list that stops at the state line while the contract does not - is what the comparisons on the map test against every other portal.
