Nanny sues hidden-camera manufacturer


Een voorbeeldje van waarvoor je in de VS zoal een rechtzaak aan je broek kan krijgen:

Nanny sues hidden-camera manufacturer:
"'A nanny who was arrested after police viewed hidden camera video recordings that appeared to show her shaking a 5-month-old baby is suing the recording system's manufacturer.' Prosecutors dropped charges against Claudia Muro when experts noted that the 'nanny-cam' in question captured only 5.5 frames per second, as opposed to the 30 frames of video cameras, with the result that the nanny's movements with her infant charge might have appeared abnormally jerky and violent. 'Muro's attorneys said the Tyco Fire & Security recording system needed a warning on it that the cameras did not capture real-time movement and could distort the speed of motion.' (WTVJ/MSNBC, Jun. 14; Jon Burstein, 'Nanny who spent time in jail files lawsuit against hidden-camera company', South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Jun. 14)(& Cutting Edge of Ecstasy)."
