[Criminal Number 18F]

why is Street hiring a private security firm to conduct sweeps??

That, I can answer. Technical Security Countermeasures is a very small field requiring very deep expertise. It can be done by a very few resources in the federal government, and by a mere handful of security firms in the nation. I don't believe any state or municipal agency can do it.

These guys.

Depending on the ingenuity of the concealment, many class
II devices will not be located by these "expert" firms.

Even their signal fingerprint is more discreet and hard to
detect.


Class II devices are restricted to government usage. As a rule of thumb private firms are not suppose to aknowledge finding these types of devices. Unless of course they are found visually during an inspection.

Bernie Spindell, the wiretapping and bug security consultant for the Teamsters when Jimmy Hoffa ran that organization, was pretty well the top gun on the other side of the street, too, having caught Attorney General Robert Kennedy on bugs Bernie had planted in Marilyn's apartment.

Funny how quiet those in the business back then get when asked about the tapes from the night Monroe died. That might be something for Philly's mayor to be thinking about.
