My opinion, only after you have their full side of the story, and thats what they want to stick with. Then they see themselves comitting the crime, and it's exactly what they said. There is no question, and they most often plead guilty saving everyone some time court time and cost.
Sure they can see the video...in court.
I don't see the value in allowing them to view the video. If your evidence is good then you are justified in taking action, and if it isn't then you don't. Their viewing of the video should not affect the outcome.
Court is great place for them to first view the footage.
Yes they can see the video, after their defense lawyer has recieved it as part of disclosure. Before then, absolutely not.
Absolutely not, never reveal your hole card until necessary; That would be in court.
No they should not!
An employee caught stealing knows what they did and should not have the opportunity to view footage...this is just a means of stalling.
Like mentioned above, the employee will have an opportunity in court if their defense Lawyer requests it.
I do not feel any Surveillance department should reveal their footage to an employee since most employees think our coverage is better than it is; therefore leading to the possibility of more thefts/scams.
No, they should not view the video.All the information gathered in the investigation should stay there until released for prosecution. Only once they are in court should they be allowed toview the actual video.
Wow. Where did THAT question come from? Oh, yea, the 9th Circuit, I bet.
NO! Not no, heck no!
I recently had an interview with a crook who kept demanding to see the video and POS info. My response: "You may be able to see the video when it is disclosed to your defense attorney, which will be right before you get to court and you are convicted".
Sure Thing? And their defense lawyer at the same time.......IN COURT.
No person shall be denied the equal protection of the law. The scales of justice represent the impartiality with which justice is served and the sword signifies the power that is held by those making the decision. During the 16th century, artists started showing the lady blindfolded to show that justice is not subject to influence. From this, the statue earned the name Blind Justice.
