DA and sergeant say Axon fits prosecutors' needs; council asks whether alternatives were solicited
Summary
The district attorney and Detective Sergeant Anne Stein told the council Axon's platform is tailored for prosecutors and provides categorization and chain‑of‑custody tools; some council members said they saw evidence of other vendors and asked why the county claimed sole source.
The DA described the Axon package as a prosecutorial resource that would help the office comply with disclosure obligations and streamline evidence handling: "Axon's premier plus is going to allow us to be able to categorize, organize, streamline the discovery process," the DA said.
Detective Sergeant Anne Stein told the council the office needs the audit trails and the ability to organize digital evidence and that the quoted Axon program offered unlimited storage. Opposing council members said they observed other vendors that appeared to offer similar services and asked why the county sought a sole‑source waiver rather than soliciting an RFP. The DA and Sgt. Stein said other vendors examined were focused on mobile/digital forensics and not built around prosecutor workflows, and they recommended Axon as the prosecutorial fit for the county's needs.
