Foster's editorial page comes out in favor of the Attorney General's office taking another look at whether Portsmouth police officers broke the state's wiretapping statute:
The controversy stems from audio recording equipment installed to monitor employees. According to reports, the purpose was “to protect employees wrongfully accused of rudeness and/or document inappropriate conduct by employees with the public.”
With some exceptions, state law requires the consent of both parties to the type of monitoring that was done, but now discontinued, by the Portsmouth Police Department.
In the end, the AG may agree with Reams, but not for the reasons given by the county attorney. (more)
