License plate reader privacy issues, lack of available shelter beds, Jacumba solar project
Update: 2025-11-21
Description
About a dozen police agencies in San Diego County use automated license plate readers.A new KPBS investigation found those agencies are also searching cameras owned by private businesses — with limited oversight.Plus, almost all requests for shelter have failed since San Diego began clearing freeway camps. We talk about problems within the shelter system and why it's so hard to secure a spot.And, we talk about why residents in Jacumba are pushing back on a 600-acre solar project that would surround the town.Guests: Scott Rodd, investigative reporter, KPBSGustavo Solis, investigative border reporter, KPBSBlake Nelson, homelessness reporter, The San Diego Union-TribuneElaine Alfaro, East County reporter, KPBS
