Questions about being able to record LEO?

Wonder no longer. I found a site that list the laws of every state regarding the recording of individuals during encounters.

I do not claim this to be legal advice. However, the laws a posted on this site and can be reviewed as you see fit.

They left out some specific cases dealing with police.

Johnson vs. Sequim: http://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/F3/388/676/569794/

State vs Flora: http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/gunstuff/legal/State_v_Flora.html

It's the consensus that when public officials are engaging you in their "public" duty you can record without them being aware of the recording. Especially when it is in a public place.

Another case that support this line of thinking and how our state views it.
