What we do not know
Clark County Sheriff
- Whether the 2017 policy has been updated since the unit's own 2023 call for it, and the renewed FAA authorization; both in the drafted records request.
- The full fleet inventory and cost, which the report's narrative implies but does not table.
- The retention and access rules for drone footage inside the Axon evidence system, where it shares a platform with body camera video.
What drones are
An unmanned aircraft carrying a camera, flown by a public agency. Where a state classes drones as military equipment, as California does, a public policy and a governing-body vote are required before an agency uses one.
