Police on Duty Have No Privacy Right
A man who was arrested by a police officer who objected to being filmed while on duty has won a case in the 9th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals. The decision reinstated a suit filed against the police department that had been dismissed in an earlier ruling. The suit charged that the police chief could not have had any real expectation of privacy while performing his duties during a traffic stop.
