Nope. You can record anything if you have a good reason to, and a warrent. It's not as complicated as movies make it seem. There's no secret van that sits out front. Basically, if it's a cell phone. We can call the company (if it's a reasonably short time after the call) and get a tap on any phone. (Patriot Act!) If it's a land line same thing. As far as calls that have already happened well that just depends on who they called. (a lot of businesses record all phone calls)Waif said:When it comes to under-cover sting operations, what rights do the detectives have in dealing with the subject of their operation? Like, what can they do and what can't they do? Rather I am thinking of how much they can monitor of the subject, where they can monitor the subject, and with what methods. I remember hearing somewhere that you can record anyone's phone/in your immediate vicinity conversation as long as one person who is being recorded knows about it. Though I have always doubted this ever since I have heard it. Perhaps you can clarify this for me. Thanks ^~^!
An example is when a dealer used to call his baby momma at her secritary job. The company was recording those calls. Hey it was their phone.
