The filmmaker behind the ACORN tapes says he doesn’t know if he broke Maryland law when he filmed workers at the group’s Baltimore office.
Fox’s Chris Wallace named James O’Keefe the “Power Player of the Week” for the videos he made of himself and a female companion pretending to be a pimp and a prostitute, soliciting advice from ACORN workers on how to cover up the importation of underage prostitutes from Latin America.
But when Wallace asked O’Keefe, in a taped segment on Fox News Sunday, whether O’Keefe had broken the law by filming the incident, the filmmaker responded: “Um, I don’t know. If you want to equate the concealment of the prostitution of children with videotaping someone without their consent, that’s your moral prerogative.”
It should be noted the hidden-cam video involved only false claims of prostitution and child smuggling. Under Maryland law, all parties involved in a private conversation must consent to be recorded, under criminal penalty. LinkHere
