“New York spent over $700 million on settlements in the last year alone, which covered suits claiming negligence, police abuse and property damage. It expects that total to rise to over $800 million per year by 2016. Now, suddenly, there’s a privacy concern because, and only because, a cop might find himself creating some damning footage. Screw Kelly. If privacy’s ‘off the table,’ it’s off the table for EVERYONE. In 2010, the NYPD had only 500 cameras up-and-running. In its quest to turn New York into the next ‘Ring of Steel,’ the department upped that to nearly 3,000 cameras by the end of 2011. Kelly loves cameras. But not on his guys.”
