“A 29-year-old Orlando man was arrested on suspicion of smoking pot and swallowing a joint after he was spotted with marijuana on the city’s video camera system, known as IRIS. According to an arrest affidavit, an Orlando police sergeant was using an Innovative Response to Improve Safety (IRIS) camera to monitor South Terry Avenue and West South Street and spotted three men possibly smoking marijuana. The IRIS camera initiative was launched in Orlando in 2008 as a tool to help police fight crime. The cameras are operated by the Orlando Police Department and are viewed by an officer around the clock.”
