Millions of people enjoy photography for both personal or professional reasons everyday. But recently there has been an increase in law enforcement violating the constitutional rights of those photographers, prohibiting them from take legal and rightful pictures. Below is an article from the ACLU's website, and TFNJ staff thought it would be helpful to photographers across the U.S.
Miami, Fla. -
The real Miami Police are reporting that fake police robbed a family while in their home at 18695 SW 291st St. in Miami.
The men were described as four hispanic men wearing all black. After knocking on the door they ordered to family outside, then back inside while they robbed the family who suffered minor injuries. Authorities said the fake cops never showed a badge or ID.
Police recommend that you require anyone claiming they are a law enforcement officer to show their ID and badge, and to call the police if you still suspect the person is not a real police officer.
