fox19 now investigates.. an outlawed speed camera system is back in the tri-state tonight... well--a version of that banned system is back. in 2014--the state passed a law that got rid of unmanned speed cameras in elmwood place and new miami village. in december-- new miami p-d brought a similar speed camera back-- but this time-- there's a cop running it.

raised major questions over the ethics of this new system. investigative reporter jody barr joins us... jody- the main questions surrounding this tonight: are towns like this making ohio's roads more dangerous--and--we found something in these records that an expert tells us--is a bona fide quota system. "i got two, both 45 in a 35." barr: "that would be ticketed?" cop: "correct." they're out everyday-- "64 in a 35." new miami village cops--busting speeders with this--. it's part radar--part ticket book. but--a driver doesn't know they're busted because these cops don't have to actually pull you over. "this is new technology...welcome to the 21st century." new miami chief dan gilbert argues--this is safer--and more efficient. since a picture of the violation is uploaded to a private company--who then issues the speeding ticket--cops don't have to risk standing on the side of the road, taking the time to write you up. "we have a huge speeding problem here in new miami and we're not

issue." we watched this officer click off three tickets in 20 minutes--at 95 dollars a piece. barr: "people make the argument this is purely revenue-generating conduct. do you disagree with that assessment?" chief: "i absolutely disagree with that assessment...and i will continuously stand firm on it's a safety issue." although new miami is enforcing the state-mandated speed limit--the village is not using state speeding tickets. the village created its own speeding law that allows it to charge speeders under a village ordinance--forcing drivers to pay a 95 dollar fine. in exchange--the village won't report the points violation to the state--or to the speeder's insurer. "it has nothing to do with public safety." 11:37 "it's policing for profit--it's a money grab." attorney mike allen helped lead the 2014 state ban of speed cameras. in his opinion--this is a way for municipalities like this--to essentially print money. "the tax payers of the village of new miami and all tax payers

ought to be appauled at this." "and we found something tucked into the back of this speed camera contract that mike allen argues--is a quota system. the village signed this contract, promising the speed camera owner--that a cop would spend at least 100 hours a month ticketing drivers--splitting the fines with the private camera company. a quota? you decide." "this is pure and simple a quota and this is the first time that i've ever seen it spelled out in a contract...03:31 "if that's not something that speaks to policing for profit...i don't know what is." barr: "does that constitute a quota?" hensley: "not barr: "does that constitute a quota?" hensley: "not necessarily." new miami mayor bob hensley signed the contract with the speed camera company in december. the contract shows the village is getting a second camera--and required to run both cameras at least 200 hours a month. hensley: "that's not the way the contract reads." barr: "let me read it to you." hensley:

cameras out here and it's still 100 hours a month." barr: "it says here, each unit shall be in place and operating a minimum of 100 hours per month." hensley: "then, you ask the lawyer." "thinking people and intelligent people see this for what it is...it's policing for profit...it's a money grab." and tonight we've learned of a major change to the new miami speed camera contract. one week after our interview with the mayor, the village took out the 100 hours a month mandate-- and signed this-- a brand new contract. this version-- tricia--does not place a mandate on how long new miami cops must run those cameras, now. what about the $95 fines-- where does that money go? two places-- the village keeps 65 percent of all fines--while the private camera company keeps 35

under the standard ohio traffic ticket--the village would keep percent--and have to split the rest with the county under this and county get nothing. stormy weather has forced a cruise ship, to turn back to new look at this video the monster waves. forecasters say force winds also topped more than 100-miles an hour. the storm flipped over tables and the damage also included broken fixtures. this was on royal caribbean's "anthem no passengers hurt. nearly 12-hours of cruise to cape canaveral, florida, before the ship turned around for new jersey. the cruise line is giving them a full refund. live now

"i don't know if that's possible with me because getting up at 2:15 is always hard." that's my weekday wake-up time. my co-anchor kara sewell and i wake you up every morning which means we're jolted out of bed in the middle of the night. would the clock work for us? we both took it home and tried it out.
