Debate Sparks Over Video Recording Of Arrests
Reporting Mike Hellgren
BALTIMORE (WJZ) ―May 21, 2010


A bloody fistfight breaks out between a Baltimore City police officer and a Preakness spectator. Now the video is circulating across the web.

Several Marylanders face felony charges for recording their arrests on camera, and others have been intimidated to shut their cameras off.

Police say, "Do me a favor and turn that off. It's illegal to videotape anybody's voice or anything else, against the law in the state of Maryland."

But is he right? Can police stop you from recording their actions, like a beating at the University of Maryland College Park?

We'll see if citizens rights are worth a shit in Maryland.
Waiting to hear from these guys.

Governor Martin O'Malley (D)
Lieutenant Governor Anthony Brown(D)

It's only against the law to record someone without their knowledge ...IDK if public servants can claim that kind of privacy though???
 
supreme court precedent has stated that civil servants in the course of their official duties do not have any expectation of privacy. It's only due to severe intimidation and thuggish tactics by law enforcement agencies that these unconstitutional laws are still being enforced.
