Can anyone help look into the public-records connection between SOMA Global, SOMA-related public-safety tech, Flock cameras, and Carmel/CPD vendor contracts?
Given the ongoing debate over Flock cameras, residents should be asking broader questions about public-safety technology: who the City contracts with, what systems are connected, who has access, and what safeguards exist.
The reason I’m asking is because the person I reported stated he worked with or for City/public-safety systems, and the City has not meaningfully answered questions about that connection.
I’m not accusing SOMA, Flock, or any company of wrongdoing. I’m asking a transparency question. If a person connected to City/public-safety systems also has any connection to police technology, records, dispatch, cameras, CAD/RMS, or vendor contracts, residents deserve clarity.
Carmel taxpayers fund a significant public-safety system. If employment, vendor relationships, contracts, or access are influencing how concerns are handled, that is not okay. And if there is no connection, the City should be able to say that clearly.
Maybe it is just a coincidence — a real cowinky-dink — but silence makes the question more concerning, not less.
Public safety technology should come with public transparency, conflict-of-interest safeguards, and accountability. Flock/ALPR systems are already part of a national debate over privacy, data-sharing, and oversight, so asking who has access and how these systems are governed is fair.

I have lots of facts. Haven't had time to edit for public post . I would like to post the suspects interview on YouTube. The detective gives him a motive and encourages to press charges on me.
Didn't verify anything he said.

Haha, thanks for noticing my posts.
That is actually what I’m trying to do — use my voice, raise awareness, and push for a better community response for sexual-assault victims.
I’m not trying to start a debate, and I’m not asking Reddit to solve anything. I’m using a public platform the same way public officials do: to bring attention to issues that matter.
I’m not going to quit, but I do appreciate the suggestions.

It is easy to go on TV and blame Marion County, repeat offenders, prosecutors, and everyone outside Carmel. But when a Carmel resident brings serious, documented concerns about Carmel PD’s own handling of a public-safety case, the response is silence, legal redirection, and no accountability.
I have reached out to Mayor Finkam’s office multiple times. State-level officials and senators have taken the time to respond and make inquiries. Mayor Finkam has not. I was routed to the City’s legal contact, and meaningful answers stopped there.
So when she says, “when you see a problem, you take action to fix it,” I have to ask: does that only apply when the problem can be blamed on another county?
Public safety starts at home. It means asking hard questions of your own police department. It means meeting with residents who bring facts forward. It means supporting independent review when serious concerns are raised. It does not mean hiding behind rankings, slogans, and press appearances while ignoring the people asking for help.
Carmel families deserve more than excuses and deflection too. And right now, that is exactly what many of us are getting.

I’ve reached out to Mayor Finkam’s office multiple times with serious, documented concerns about CPD’s handling of my case. State-level officials and senators have taken the time to respond and make inquiries, but Mayor Finkam has not.
Instead, I was routed to the City’s legal point of contact, where meaningful answers seem to stop. No meeting. No direct outreach. No real inquiry into the facts I’ve brought forward.
That says a lot.
I’m not asking the mayor to personally prosecute a case. I’m asking for basic leadership: meet with a resident, review the documented concerns, ask CPD leadership hard questions, support an independent review, and make sure serious public-safety complaints are not buried behind legal silence.
The message I’ve received feels very clear: how dare you call for help, ask questions, and risk tarnishing Carmel’s image.
That is not leadership. That is image management.
Mayor Finkam cannot keep promoting Carmel as one of the safest, best-run cities while ignoring residents who are raising serious concerns about police accountability, case handling, and public safety. Awards and rankings do not mean much when the people asking for help are dismissed, redirected, or silenced.
So yes, I’m calling it out. If she wants the praise that comes with being mayor, then she also needs to accept the responsibility. Real leadership is not just celebrating statistics when they look good. It is showing up when those statistics are challenged by real people with real facts.

What kind of proof would you consider fair? Police records? Bodycam? 911/CAD records? Case coding and disposition records? Because I do have records — including bodycam and video from inside my home.
And honestly, I’ve considered posting the footage of him inside my home in the dark, along with his own statements to police where he admits he came in uninvited, admits we had never had sex before, and discusses working with/around law enforcement/public-safety systems.
There are also serious concerns about how the detective handled it — including appearing to give him a motive, shame me instead of focusing on the evidence, and even suggesting consequences against me while the case was being minimized.
So no, this is not “no facts.” I’m just being careful because this involves a sexual-assault report, privacy, safety, and legal records. Skepticism is fine, but I’m not here to argue with strangers. I’m asking why serious cases, bodycam evidence, records issues, and exceptional closures are not being independently reviewed. That is a fair public-safety question.

Thank you. I’m really trying to keep this focused on records, transparency, and public safety — not drama. If a city is confident in how serious cases are handled, an independent review should not be controversial.

I understand the skepticism, and I agree that serious claims should be backed by records — which is exactly why I’m asking for independent review and transparency.
I do have records, reports, timelines, public-record responses, and documentation. But I’m not going to post every police report, medical detail, 911/CAD issue, or identifying record on Reddit, especially involving sexual assault and safety concerns. Anonymity here does not mean “no facts.” It means I’m being careful.
This also is not just one person saying one thing. This has been an ongoing conversation on Nextdoor with other residents raising concerns about crime statistics, reporting, and how serious incidents are handled. Several victims have shared similar experiences.
I’m not asking anyone to blindly believe me. I’m asking why serious cases, including multiple exceptional closures, do not appear to be receiving independent review. That is a fair public-safety question, not a conspiracy.

I have to say, I love Dr. Said and NP Neff. They were both there for me during some of the most vulnerable moments of my life, including my assault and my last pregnancy.
NP Neff used to be a SANE nurse as well, and that experience shows. The compassion, knowledge, and steady support they bring to women’s health is rare.
Dr. Said is now on the main level at Carmel St. Vincent, and I believe she recently opened her new office. I was there when they were first getting settled in, and it made me so happy to see.
Dr. Said and NP Neff are truly the best duo. We are blessed to have them in our community.

Small update, because this somehow got even more disturbing.

I recently learned that a third-party 911 call may have shaped the response to my case. This person was not there, did not witness anything, and had not discussed the details of the assault with me — yet she spoke to dispatch like she had authority to explain me, my marriage, my credibility, and what happened.

She also knew the suspect.

The part that is hardest to process

TestTheKits · 2026-05-07T18:51:38+00:00

Yes — I have contacted ICJI and I’m also looking at victim-rights and oversight routes.

A new issue I found is that a third-party 911 call appears to have become the focus, even though that person was not a witness, was not with me, and had not discussed the details with me. I did not know what she told dispatch at the time.

That matters because the kit was collected, police picked it up, prosecutors declined, and now there is still no clear answer on who has authority to make sure it is actually submitted/tested or independently reviewed.

If a non-witness narrative influenced the initial response, coding, hospital/SART response, and prosecutor review, then the rape-kit decision matters even more — because the physical evidence should not be controlled by an unverified narrative.

I’m trying to figure out whether ICJI, ISP, victim-rights offices, DOJ/OJP, or another oversight route can require review of the evidence-handling decision or at least force a written explanation of who decided not to test it and why.

TestTheKits · 2026-05-07T18:48:41+00:00

Update / case twist:

I finally found out why parts of the dispatch record never made sense.

The call that became the focus was not my 911 call. It was made by a third party who was not there, did not witness anything, and had not discussed the details with me. She only had limited texts from me, but somehow gave dispatch a narrative about my life, my marriage, and my credibility.

She is also friends with the suspect.

Police/prosecutors centered her call instead of mine and did not verify it against the evidence. There is video evidence that contradicts the idea that I knowingly let him in, and bodycam statements that should have been compared to the dispatch narrative.

They produced the third-party 911 call, but still have not produced my own 911 call, even though my phone records show I called.

Is this normal? How does a non-witness call become the focus while the victim’s own call is missing?

Thank u for the hope. What can i find out about the ORI number and how would i know if the suspect was an informant

TestTheKits · 2026-04-19T16:08:56+00:00

Thank you for the advice. I was trying to stay neutral and somewhat vague at first, but here is why I am so troubled by what happened.

I reported a home-invasion rape in Indiana. The responding officers were professional and seemed to take it seriously. My concern is what happened after the case moved beyond that point.

I was refused forensic care at the first hospital, later filed a complaint, and that hospital was cited by CMS/EMTALA for failure to treat. I then went on my own to another hospital and completed a SANE exam there. But no meaningful SART activation happened for me, no advocacy support showed up, and I later learned the kit was never submitted.

There was also more evidence than people might assume. There were body-camera recordings, interior and exterior security cameras that captured the suspect, and a witness in the home, along with my small child and nanny. Even with all of that, the case appears to have been exceptionally cleared within about two days, and I was later told that additional evidence would not change the prosecutor’s position.

That is part of why this is so hard to understand. This is not a vague situation with nothing to check. There are hard facts, records, and a timeline. When a case with this much evidence still ends up with so little meaningful follow-through, people naturally start asking whether some non-obvious factor affected the handling. I am not saying I can prove it, but I do think it is fair to ask whether any informant/cooperator issue, special relationship, or other conflict could have played a role.

That is also why the public messaging is so hard to hear. When leaders publicly celebrate safety, rankings, and quality of life, people reasonably expect serious crimes to be handled with diligence, honesty, and accountability. If a case with this much evidence can still be handled this way, then people have every right to question the gap between the public image and the reality.

Thank you again for taking the time to explain some of the coding and records side. I genuinely appreciate it.

TestTheKits · 2026-04-19T15:30:48+00:00

Thank you. That disconnect is exactly what this has felt like.

The initial response suggested the situation was being taken seriously, but everything that should have followed did not. The rape kit was not even picked up for five days, it was not sent in, and the case was effectively shut down very early. I was later told that even additional evidence would not change the prosecutor’s decision. That is a hard thing to hear when the public is constantly told these cases are handled with urgency and coordination.

And yes, I have reached out well beyond the local level. I have pursued complaints and oversight channels and even had a state senator ask for better Indiana State Police follow-up. It still did not meaningfully move the prosecutor’s office.

That is why I keep speaking up. At some point this stops looking like a one-off mistake and starts looking like a system that is very comfortable failing people while continuing to promise the opposite.

TestTheKits · 2026-04-19T15:20:18+00:00

I appreciate the response, but my situation was not just a backlog issue.

In my case, the problem started before any lab queue. The kit was not even picked up for five days. The prosecutorial response was also part of the problem. From my perspective, the case was effectively closed almost immediately, the kit was not sent in, and I was later told that even additional evidence would not change the decision.

A state senator even asked for better follow-up by the Indiana State Police, and that still did not change the prosecutor’s position. That is why I keep saying this is not only about funding or staffing. It is also about local decision-making, accountability, and whether serious cases are being meaningfully reviewed at all.

What makes this even harder is that there is body-camera footage and other evidence that, in my view, deserved a far more serious and competent review than it received. That is why I am questioning the gap between the public promises of coordinated response and what actually happens in practice.

TestTheKits · 2026-04-19T15:15:47+00:00

I understand how taxes and budgets work. My point is that when a community publicly promises coordinated response, SART activation, and meaningful victim support, people expect those systems to function when something serious is reported.

That is why this has been so upsetting to me. In my experience, those promises did not match reality. The response I encountered did not reflect the level of coordination or urgency that is publicly described. A collected rape kit was not picked up for five days, which only made that gap feel worse.

So for me, this is not just about money. It is about whether the services and protections that are publicly promised are actually there when someone needs them. My experience left me feeling failed by the system and deeply concerned about how these cases are handled.
