Police Begin To Arrest For Cell Phone Recordings - ...

"Simon Glik, a lawyer, was walking down Tremont Street in Boston when he saw three police officers struggling to extract a plastic bag from a teenagers mouth. Thinking their force seemed excessive for a drug arrest, Glik pulled out his cellphone and began recording. Within minutes, Glik said, he was in handcuffs." Apparently recording a scene of arrest is causing harm and interfering with the cop's job at ensuring our safety. We disagree; how can surveillance hurt a situation like that? What do you think?

"Police charged Glik with violating the state's wiretap statute, which prohibits secret voice recording of communications, forcing Glik to hire a criminal defense attorney. After four months, Boston Municipal Court Justice Mark Summerville threw out the criminal charges because Glik's recording of the police had not been made in secret.

Police officers must be trained to respect the right of people to openly record their actions in public," said Howard Friedman, attorney representing Glik"
