(OTCBB: COYN ), a software technology provider to law enforcement and emergency service professionals, announces today that eight additional Texas law enforcement agencies have implemented the Company's COPsync(TM) real-time mobile data information sharing software.
The following four Texas law enforcement agencies are the latest to receive federal funding under the Recovery Act - Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant (JAG) Program to implement the COPsync(TM) law enforcement information sharing technology: Bee County Sheriff's Office, Culberson County Sheriff's Office, Jim Hogg County Sheriff's Office and Zavala County Sheriff's Office. The City of Bullard Police Department, The City of Hawley Police Department, The City of Wells Police Department and The West Central Texas Inter-local Crime Task Force, all located in Texas, will self-fund the implementation of COPsync(TM) in their patrol vehicles.
The COPsync technology will bring these Agencies into compliance with federal mandates established by the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security with respect to interoperability and information sharing. Any law enforcement officer on the COPsync network is immediately alerted if an individual with whom that officer is in contact has been determined to be a safety threat, has an active warrant for their arrest, is listed as a runaway or otherwise flagged in the system to be a person of interest. Officers on this network will now have direct access to criminal, incident and offense data obtained by any Agency using the network. This information allows law enforcement officers to prepare and respond intelligently to a potential threat and approach situations that arise with a proactive approach in lieu of always working in a reactive mode.
"We are excited to see Agencies continue to receive federal grant funding to enable data information sharing. The addition of eight new police departments significantly increases the reach and value of our network, which has recently been implemented by its 100th agency. COPsync(TM) is the only existing real-time mobile software that allows all subscribing police departments, sheriff's offices and other law enforcement agencies to share critical information in real-time at the point of incident, which will reduce crime rates, increase officer efficiency, enable real-time mutual aid to stop criminal activity in progress and aid in solving open or pending cases," commented Russell Chaney, CEO of COPsync, Inc.
