## Abstract

A process for electronically detecting a criminal organization out-of-boundary condition includes first maintaining a stored first geofence definition defining a geographic area associated with a first criminal organization. One or more audio and/or video streams or RF identifiers from recording devices located outside of the first geofence definition are received. An out-of-boundary condition is then detected in the streams or identifiers in which an individual determined to be associated with the first criminal organization is detected outside of the first geofence definition. Responsive to detecting the out-of-boundary condition, causing an electronic notification of the out-of-boundary condition to be one of output and transmitted to another computing device notifying the another computing device of the out-of-boundary condition.
