the aclu is here and i agree we have to address those privacy concerns. police often have interactions in homes during the worst moments of a citizen's life and so the policy has to contain protections and penalties against leaking the footage. i have a copy of the policy from the duluth police department. i have three copies for you and i'd be happy to make it available to anyone else who wants to see it, but these policies are good. they cover when the cameras are on. it's a much broader list than what i heard referenced earlier. in duluth they include traffic stops, violations, stranded motorist situations, vehicle pursuits, arrests, vehicle searchs, physical and verbal confrontations, use of force, prisoner transports, crimes in progress, taking a statement or information from a suspect or witness, you know, which is key, again, because you're not going to have differing interpretations as to what somebody said. they also include any situation or incident that the officer through training and experience believes should be audibly or visually preserved

overall, the aclu estimates at least 50 people are being held in the scott county in a similar situation indictment and no access to a lawyer. >> for more we're joined by brandon buskey, staff attorney with the criminal law reform project at the aclu and lead attorney on the case in scott county, mississippi. welcome to democracy now! we have been investigating the situation in mississippi throughout the state for roughly a year and a half. we knew coming in there was a serious problem with the right to counsel throughout the state. and also that individuals, even before they are formally charged with a crime, faced an indefinite amount of time in jail because the state places no limit on the amount of time an individual may be in jail before the prosecutor has to bring a formal indictment. so making contact throughout the state and talking to public defenders, talking to judges, talking to civil rights lawyers, we were able to establish a fairly decent network. and it so happened about two months ago, we received a call concerning octavious burks, the individual you just showed on the s

it'll be great to hear from the police department what is happening and we also have the members of the aclu here as well to discuss the ideas around the use of body mounting cameras and i want to make sure we get their perspectives as well. there are, i think some rules of the road that i think enable them to be used more effectively and with transparency. the aclu also has report of use of body mounted cameras and i think they'll be here to share those as well. i believe we have detective joyce hicks here as well and she may be arriving later and now i'll cede the mic. . we've dot at lot of work around the body cameras about i'll go briefly over the presentation and please interrupt if you have any questions. the san francisco police department is a recipient of a $250,000 grant from the department of justice. because it's $250,000 it's enough to fund a pilot program where we'll purchase 165 cameras. during the pilot we'll deploy the pdrds at ten district stations and investigative units. the lion's share of cost is the storage of data. the actual cameras themselves are not that cost prohi

the aclu is grateful to the judge. a careful, thoughtful ruling that went through how the constitution protects the rights of protesters. you can't arbitrarily tell peaceful protesters they have to keep moving or they can't stop or they can't petition the government. it was a good ruling. i encourage anybody who's interested in first amendment issues to take a look at it and read it. it's very helpful. >> jeffrey, on a practical level, what does this mean for the protests planned this week and weekend in ferguson? does this mean day or night they can protest and stand still? >> what it means is if you are engaged in peaceful protest activity, the police can't tell mñ arbi keep move, be in a certain area, not exercise your first amendment rights. this is a very important declaration and reminder that in the u.s., we always have the right to engage in peaceful protests and let the government know when we're unhappy. >> ashley, you were actually arrested. we had that picture we showed in the beginning of you in handcuffs

jay stanley from the aclu and krystal ball. can you catch krystal on "the cycle" at 3 p.m. eastern on msnbc and on krystalclear, i've been on that, every wednesday morning at 11:30 eastern live streaming on msnbc.com. that is a must view. it's a great show. >>> now, three things to know this wednesday. nobel peace prize says she's donating $50,000 to rebuild united nations run schools in gaza. that 90,000 -- that $50,000 was the prize for another honor she just received. several u.n. schools were destroyed during the war between israel and hamas. >>> the man charged with leading the department of homeland security's internal investigation of the secret service's infamous scandal was himself suspected of patronizing a prostitute. he stepped down from the inspector general's office in miami in august after a woman told sheriff's deputies he paid her for sex. he denies the allegations and he did not work for homeland security or the secret service. >>> and former major league all-star jose canseco is recovering from surgery after he told police he accidentally shot himself in

the aclu knew it was unconstitutional on august 18, the night they were told they would have to continue the aclu people was told he could not stand still. on that same day, the aclu used that to bring a lawsuit against the police. and today, judge kathryn perry said the police improvised rule is unconstitutional. in a 25-page decision she wrote, the keep-moving policy as it was applied, prohibited citizens from peacefully assembling on the public sidewalks. the rule provided no notice to citizens of what conduct was unlawful and its enforcement was entirely arbitrary and left to the unfettered discretion of the officers on the street. she quoted a 1986 case. the loss of first amendment freedom the for even minimal periods of time unquestionably constitutes irreparable injury. thanks to a judge appointed by bill clinton 20 years ago and confirmed by a democratically controlled senate, protesters will be able to exercise their constitutional right to not walk.

one day i got a solicitation from the aclu with my new home address. site called them up and they said can you uncover dismissed you as how exactly get my current home address that recently changed? they dug it up and found out that a magazine that i have been subscribing to sold it to them to then i called up one day out of many of which makes adult toys, we sell all this information. it's like from the magazine that is not for sensitive, just this vast amount of data that is sold because the aclu is saying, i magazine was paying 10 cents by selling my name. if you multiply that tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of customers, its revenue that is attractive to them. that's something i found especially interesting. >> i've always found if you want to get people to do something, that you wanted to you try to make it easy for them to do it. so you word describing scrolling through a policy of 6000 words, or then you had different websites where people want to join because others belong like facebook or something, and then unraveling the choices a

the aclu will have an overall arguments of those cases will be very interesting to watch and many people who read the tea leaves predict that issue on depth in the supreme court with the next three years but we will see. i'm going to talk about a few more developments in national security law and transparency over the last few years but well into four different categories. the first is imaginable that is transparency in this area releases of the information that we are learning about in the second has to do with the president's reaction to the leaks in his decision on how to change the program moving forward. a third is about congress's reaction and where congress stands on these questions and forth is about the biggest new issue going forward which is 12333. first on classification and transparency regarding texas surveillance there has been a few significant developments here. the first significant development to highlight is the fisa court, which existed for many years, since the late 1970s and has heard for a long time on applications for individual surveillance based on reasonable s

according to the aclu in 2012 157,000 people voted during the times that have now been cut, score oneer oppression, sorry, suppression. then on wednesday the supreme court ordered north carolina's voter restrictions to go into effect for the midterms, the court blocked a lower court order that would have allowed voters in north carolina to register at the same time they vote this year. they also blocked north carolina from counting the ballets of those who vote in the wrong precinct. more than 20,000 took advantage of same day voter. then on thursday the supreme court turned its attention to wisconsin and the strict voter identification requirement there. so the rights group estimates that the law could disenfranchise up to 300,000 registered voters who lack the proper i.d. every vote counts frankly at this point. i've resigned myself to the court making it a three-peat in allowing the i.d. law to take hold. but the supreme court can sometimes surprise us and on thursday the court blocked the voter i.d. law temporarily, effectively stopping it from going into effect this year. so on t

and i know that you work closely with the occ to do that, but some of these other agencies like the aclu. and in terms of cost, i think we have to provide some contest. if it's $4 million a year that's less than 1% of the total police department budget, as i understand. so i think in the end there's a financial cost that is significant, but in the larger scheme of things you save money because of the reduction in the number of kaess that are brought against the police department, but you gain something that's even more important, which is the community trust or and the ability of officers to use this as an armor against false allegations as well so i think benefits do surpass the financial costs so i hope we pursue this as quickly as possible. i am very grateful that the youth commission noted we are still waiting to hear on the training around youth, police interactions so we will hear from police department on that very shortly. we have a motion, if we can have a motion to file this without an objection. thank you very much. mr. clerk, do we have any other business before the committee

individual at that scale and as i pointed out this vast array that one day i got a solicitation from the aclu with my new home address i said can you uncover this mystery how did you get this? they found out a magazine that i was subscribing to so i called up one day and they said resell information. so the magazine is not sensitive to that vast amounts of data that is sold because it was making $0.10 to sell my name if you will supply that by hundreds of thousands that is revenue. so that does not sound interesting. >> if you want to get people to do something you make it easy. so try scrolling through a policy of 6,000 words then you have different websites where people want to adjoin like facebook. and to unravel the choices so what you think it would make it easier for those intelligent choices? i feel i reached -- reasonably intelligent but after a matter of time. >> handle the same privacy policy so complex than tinkled even though studying it cannot understand it. have you done that experiment? >> with the privacy experts from pittsburgh. >> so saying it is the fundamental failure. may

as part of a decade-long transparency case brought by the aclu, the judge ordered the government to delineate, for each photograph, its reasons for keeping the images from the public. the photographs are reportedly more disturbing than the famous images of torture by u.s. forces at abu ghraib in iraq. in mexico, the governor of the southern state where 43 students disappeared following a police ambush has resigned. governor angel aguirre rivero is from the same political party as the mayor of iguala, who is accused of ordering the attack on the students. aguirre has been a target of ongoing protests for allowing corruption of officials in the state to go unchecked. a lawyer for haitians impacted by a deadly outbreak of cholera has asked a u.s. judge to let their lawsuit against the united nations move forward. the outbreak, which killed over 8,500 people, has been traced to u.n. peacekeepers who responded to haiti's 2010 earthquake. at thursday's hearing, an attorney from the justice department appeared in court to argue the u.n. should be immune from such legal action. but beatrice lindstrom

similarly, the aclu while shenna was working for them, also opposed the disclose act.t was unfair and exempted some organizations altogether. >> the fourth question is from clayton. there are many farmers markets in maine. when was the last time you shop at one? >> the last time was in early september. the farmers market in downtown bangor, across the street from the library. it is set up every sunday. it has wonderful, fresh produce. one of the things i bought were multicolored carrots. i had never seen anything other than orange carrots before. it was great fun to buy those as well as fresh beets and lettuce. i also bought blueberries, which i made a blueberry buckle with. i would be happy to share the recipe. >> i joke that i ate my way across maine when i walked 350 miles. we walked through farmers markets in waterville, farms. i love blueberries. i also love cherry tomatoes. those are my favorite purchases at farmers markets. my husband and i shop regularly at farmers market and also the apple orchard where we live now. my husband was at the farmers market last we

i am kris chris, work for the aclu. over the last few years we learned the lawful intercept systems at google and microsoft have been hacked by foreign governments. google and microsoft were hacked by the chinese and then microsoft law enforcement team was subsequently hacked by the syrian electronic army. these are companies that invest vast sums in data security and the leading companies on the security front. whether you want to call it's front door or back door, if these companies are delivering encrypted communications the only logical way to provide law enforcement access is to have a key, if the keys are there, whether there's in law enforcement hands, third party, or the company's hand, people will try to steal them. last year, foreign policy ran an article in which they described the fbi -- a team of fbi agents backing a trash truck into the czech embassy's facilities and stealing a crypto graphic machine and the keys associated with it. many people don't understand that the fbi is also in the business of steali

they were invited into america by the aclu, which basically wants a bailout for detroit. ts on this? detroit is bankrupt. they owe $18 billion. that's bad. there is $115 million owed on water bills. so the city did indeed cut some people off. but they put 33,000 people on a partial payment system so that water is still running, but they are stale paying a little bit for it. only 2300 homes are cut off. >> these families don't have water, i'm sorry they can't pay their bills. but why is that any different than any other bill that we have to pay? you don't pay your house or car, you lose it. if you're not paying for water, why should you get it? >> of course. this has been going on for years and years and years and detroit is bankrupt. the united nations says you've got to give that water to people because it is a human right. if they're living in a house without water, you have to move into a house with water and you have to give them lawyers to make sure they get that water for free. >> that would be great if the world actually worked that way. these are some of their reco

the aclu put out a report this past june on the militarization of police and we looked at s.w.a.t.urbing thing we found is in these s.w.a.t. raids, nonemergency situations, usually for nonviolent crimes, the police either knew children were present or didn't investigate to see whether they were present, conducted military-style violent s.w.a.t. raids that ended up injuring children, including, for instance, a flash grenade that landed in a baby's crib and exploded. if they're not paying attention on s.w.a.t. raids if children are present, it's not surprising they conducted themselves this way with the children were in the backseat. >> or a teenager, there doesn't seem to be much of a distukz. there's another case about neighbors who called in a burglary call because the foster child of a white family, and the child happens to be black, was going in his own house. when he questioned police, why are you stopping me, a legitimate question, he got pepper sprayed. it doesn't seem there's a whole lot of restraint in play. >> that's ultimately the issue. police are peace officers. to the
