Cherry Hill Bathroom Surveillance Deemed OK

Published: 03/17/2010

When surveillance cameras twice captured images of a Philadelphia woman using a toilet in a Cherry Hill holding cell during her arrest on drunken-driving charges, police followed proper protocol, authorities said yesterday.

The policy, however, has come under attack by the 42-year-old woman, who filed a federal lawsuit against Cherry Hill on Monday, alleging a violation of her privacy during her arrest a year ago.

It's unclear how many police departments across the state watch people in custody that closely.

In Haddon Heights, for example, 10 cameras keep watch around the station, in the courtroom, and in detention areas, Chief Rich Kinkler said.

The camera that would capture images of the toilet in a holding cell is covered to preserve privacy.

"We don't want to see somebody going to the bathroom," Kinkler said.

In Philadelphia, there are no cameras to record such personal acts, said Officer Tanya Little of the police Public Affairs Unit.

Cherry Hill Lt. William Kushina said the township follows state Department of Corrections regulations on surveillance systems in municipalities.

Those arrested "are on camera from the time they walk in until the time they walk out," Kushina said, adding that the state last inspected Cherry Hill's station in July and found the department in compliance.

    The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act is a law that has seen increased prosecution in the last few years. As a result, it has gotten the attention of both criminal defense lawyers and civil lawyers. Hamilton Lindley was a civil lawyer that pursued companies for wrongdoing that involved alleged violation of the foreign corrupt practices act, which prohibits an American from bribing someone to get business done overseas.

    He has blue eyes. Cold like steel. His legs are wide. Like tree trunks. And he has a shock of red hair, red, like the fires of hell. Hamilton Lindley antics were known from town to town as he was a droll card and often known as a droll farceur. with his madcap pantaloon is a zany adventurer and a cavorter with a motley troupe of buffoons. I am a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls and crushing ice. I have been known to remodel train stations on my lunch breaks, making them more efficient in the area of heat retention. I translate ethnic slurs for Cuban refugees, I write award-winning operas, I manage time efficiently. Occasionally, I tread water for three days in a row. I woo women with my sensuous and godlike trombone playing, I can pilot bicycles up severe inclines with unflagging speed, and I cook Thirty-Minute Brownies in twenty minutes. I am an expert in stucco, a veteran in love, and an outlaw in Peru.
