Fascist Gulag: 75 Years in Prison For Videotaping US Police

TheTruethSeeker: Michael Allison faces 75 years in prison for five counts of recording law enforcement officials without their consent in Robinson, Illinois.

Illinois is one of the states applying old eavesdropping and wiretapping statutes to new technologies like cell phones or anything else that records audio.

Most states allow citizens to record audio in public of on-duty law enforcement officials without their permission. But that's considered a felony in Illinois, punishable by up to 15 years in prison for each offense.
