best security camera for bar image
KAT
Somebody broke into our 2nd story apartment and stole a few items. I suspect the thug friends of a teenage neighbor but can't prove it. To prevent this from happening again, can I put a security camera in the window of my apartment with a "Smile, you are on Camera" sign to keep track who walks up the stairs to my apartment?
Do I need permission from the landlord to do this, even though the camera will be inside my apartment?
The landlord won't do ANYTHING to help us, because she is afraid to be called a racist if she confronts the neighbors.
I live in Los Angeles.

We do not know the state or city in which you live, and these facts are important to give you information about your options. Therefore, we can provide only two general rules:
(1) Yes, you have the legal right generally to record public places from inside your premises. Thus, if the corridor is for your and your neighbors' use, the general rule is that you may record the corridor.
(2) You should consider consulting an attorney about your landlord's failure to protect you. There are at least two legal principles which you attorney will consider: the duty of the landlord to prevent nuisances and to provide security against known dangers. If you have put your landlord on proper notice, then your landlord may herself be required legally to reimburse your losses and to install a better security system.
If you cannot afford an attorney, then call your local bar association and ask for a referral to a "free or low-cost legal clinic which specializes in landlord-tenant law."
Hope this helps.

Shoplifting - Do people actually go over security tapes?
damn_da_ds
I was just wondering - so if you shoplift in front of a security camera, then walk off without getting caught, do stores actually review those tapes after realizing something has been stolen? Or does shoplifting happen so often that they don't really bother?
Answer
They probably do not go over them as a matter of practice. However, if they see something missing, and can narrow the time frame down, they will look at the tapes.
We have that happen occasionally. The person in charge of the department notices something missing. He then scans the bar code, and the computer tells him how many are in stock. If the count is off, he notifies loss prevention. They review the tape, find a suspect, and send us a picture.
One of us usually recognizes the person. If not, we take it to the high school where either a staff member or the School Liaison Officer identifies the person.
