Linda Tripp taped a phone conversation which could be contrued as an illegal wiretap. I think she won because Monica was not in MD so MD law did not apply.
In this case, I believe Hannah and her friend will prevail because they taped someone in a public place. Obviously if you are a tourist at Inner Harbor and you videotape a crime, you can not be prosecuted for lack of consent because it is a public place.
So I believe the lawsuit to be groundless because of the public place of business.
I personally have O’Malley on videotape playing with his band. I did not need consent because it was public.
The charges against Tripp were dropped because of numerous immumity agreements that Starr had entered into.
Public place? Not in the ACORN office?
