I knew the original post to be in error not in that what was said was wholey wrong, its just that the poster didn't go far enough. You still cannot surreptiously wiretap anyone. And I wouldn't be surpised to see this more clearly defined to mean in this case only, or the ruling to be overturned. It was never illegal as ascertained to film any officer, ever. Someone needs to find a case that says otherwise.

Likwid the cop did know the law. Up until this particular judge interpreted the law as he wanted this particular time it was illegal to wiretap.

Not all cell phones record sound either. Most new ones do, but some of the older ones dont.
