The Department of Justice entered into a non-prosecution agreement with Redflex Traffic Systems Inc., a Phoenix-based automated safety company. The agreement was reached in part due to Redflex’s extensive and thorough cooperation over recent years, which is detailed in the agreement. It included cooperation with the successful prosecutions of several individuals, including a high-ranking city of Chicago official and Redflex’s prior Chief Executive Officer. Among the company’s obligations under the agreement, which shall continue for two years, Redflex will pay restitution and compensatory damages to the City of Chicago, the amount of which will be determined either by a final judgment or a settlement agreement in Chicago’s pending civil lawsuit against Redflex. Redflex will also pay restitution of $100,000 to the City of Columbus, Ohio. DOJ
