Americans have the right to film police in public, court rules
rt.com
US citizens have the right to film police performing their duties, a three-judge panel of judges from the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit has ruled, overturning a Philadelphia court decision against two people who filmed on-duty police.
Writing the opening opinion for Fridayâs ruling was Judge Thomas Ambro, who cited the famous Rodney King case from 1991, when Los Angeles police were filmed beating King. Judge Ambro said that âfilming police on the job was rare then, but common now.â
âThese recordings have both exposed police misconduct and exonerated officers from errant charges,â he said. Ambro added that âthis increase in the observation, recording and sharing of police activity has contributed greatly to our national discussion of proper policing.â
This latest judgement overturns the year-old controversial ruling from the lower US district court level in Philadelphia.
