Still Haven’t Returned 2006 Confiscated Video
Once again, police confiscated a camera under the pretense of “evidence” – which numerous lawyers say is unlawful without a subpoena.

Michael Gannon beat those wiretapping charges when the Nashua Police Department decided it wasn’t going to pursue them in court.

“They returned my cameras and surveillance equipment, but they kept my tapes,” the 55-year-old land surveyor said in an interview with Photography is Not a Crime Wednesday night.
