According to Sheriff Elect Burnett, "We are excited about our relationship with COPsync. The implementation of this software will not only significantly enhance productivity, but has the potential to save lives. The technology assists in all of the activities that an officer could expect to encounter while on duty, in a simple format and at the touch of a button.
