What we do not know
County security cameras
- How many cameras the county's Genetec system holds, in which buildings, and whether any of them look outward onto a street or a parking lot the public uses.
- How long recordings are kept, who may view them, and whether viewing is logged.
- What "Law Enforcement Enterprise Cameras System Phase 4" covers, and how it relates to the jail's separate system.
- Whether the badge half of the system records staff movement, and how long those records last.
What camera networks are
Fixed and steerable cameras run by a public agency, often networked so footage from many locations can be watched or searched from one place.
