Oklahoma teenager arrested after allegedly stealing deputy's radio, hacking
into system

GUTHRIE, Okla. - A metro teenager is behind bars after authorities said he
allegedly hacked into their private system and stole police radios.

Earlier this month, officials said 19-year-old Jared Joslin was arrested on
three charges.

Authorities in Guthrie allege Joslin impersonated the fire chief and used a
bogus email address to hack into GeoSafe -- the private system used to
track first responder vehicles.

"Call logs, locations of the units that are logged into GeoSafe. It's
scary," said Logan County Sheriff Damon Deveraux.

Investigators said other private information about the public was also
exposed.

"What is concerning is that we deal with victims of crime or even a
violator of crime," said Sgt. Anthony Gibbs with the Guthrie Police
Department. "Until they are convicted or until there is an arrest warrant,
their information isn't public."

To make matters worse, authorities said Joslin smashed out a deputy's car
window and stole a police radio. After that, he was able to tune into a
private frequency.

"He had a radio that he could transmit on," Gibbs said. "There's more
damage you can do with a radio you can transmit on. You can actually tie up
the air when somebody needs it. You can try to give bogus calls. You can
impersonate a police officer."

Investigators said DPS contacted police when things looked suspicious and
they were able to track an IP address to Joslin's home. Once there, they
found scanners, radios and a stolen deputy's jacket.

But, what Joslin told authorities is what really disturbed them.

"He really wanted to be in law enforcement, and I think the statement he
made was he wanted to respond to bank robberies," Devereaux said.

Joslin was taken to jail for violating the Oklahoma Computer Crimes Act,
concealing stolen property and using a radio to commit a felony.
