"After talking with some of the East Nashville Neighborhood Watch page administrations, we understand why the Metro Nashville Police Department intends to encrypt police radio channels. Von Moye of the East Nashville Neighborhood Watch Facebook page with 11,000 members released a statement: While they understand the issues the police department can face from public channels, they are also concerned. However, there are concerns from neighborhood watch groups whose administrators listen to scanners and post about crimes online. Metro police confirm that no officers or members of the public have been hurt or killed as a result of someone listening to the police scanner, but they hope to keep it that way. While we do not collect data on the physical harm scanner monitoring could have potentially caused, we do know that scanner traffic has compromised resident anonymity during incidents and jeopardized emergency responder safety during response," said Williamson County Public Safety and Emergency Management External Affairs Officer Hannah Bleam. Harm can be inflicted in many different forms. "The confidential information of our residents are compromised every day through radio traffic streaming sites on the internet.

"The channels we use day in and day out to respond to the public's need will be encrypted. With the new system, Williamson County will go from 20 channels to 300.

MNPD Spokesperson Don Aaron said the decision is to help keep law enforcement and the public safe from harm.
