Can you video / record the Fairfax County Police

I have heard conflicting information on this. Some say it is protected under the Constitution, others say it is a violation of the Officers rights. Does anyone know what the law is in the Commonwealth? The way I understand this is as long as you do not interfere with the officers doing their job you can record all you want.

Couple of different scenarios if you want more detail to address:

I get pulled over by a FCP officer for a traffic stop. Can I video record the exchange between the officer and myself? Do I need to let him know I am recording the exchange?

I witness a police stop and want to video the event can I video?


I see a Sobriety check point and want to video, can I?

The Supreme Court has upheld the fact that based on the Patriot Act it is against the law to video tape Police Officers or other first responders doing their job, due to matters of National Security. You will be asked to stop and told to turn over the tape. If you are using an iphone or similar device, your iphone will be confiscated until deletion of video in question is confirmed. (This usually involves the Police Department's IT division disabling or erasing everything on your device's hard drive, including contacts, photos, apps, etc.)

Not sure if troll, or cop trying to pull a fast one.
Taking photographs and video in a public space is a constitutional right. LEO's cannot confiscate cameras, cellphones, etc. without a search warrant. And they are not allowed, under any circumstances to delete anything from someone else property, even if legally confiscated. Hope this helps.

 

 

HERE’S THE THREAT

Firstly, you being busted for DUI is not of national security. Secondly, you may think that you are recording a "rodney king" moment, but that video could also be used against you. "holy crap i'm getting pulled over after 20 beers" Get it?!
