FALSE FLOCKING DOXING (FOX NEWS)
Lindsey Brooke Isaacs spent 13 days in jail after investigators focused on her black Dodge Durango following a deadly Florida crash. A Flock license-plate camera recorded her vehicle about three miles from the crash roughly two minutes beforehand. Prosecutors later dropped all eight felony charges, and another woman was arrested.

Officials say existing test strips cannot detect cychlorphine and are calling for California lawmakers to specifically add the drug to the state's controlled-substance laws.
