HuffPo: ACLU Police App Lets People Police The Police (VIDEO) by David Moye:<\/p>\n

The New Jersey chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU-NJ) has just released \u201cPolice Tape,\u201d an Android phone app that allows people to securely and discreetly record and store their interactions with police, as well as provide legal information about citizens\u2019 rights when interacting with law officers.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
