You simply get behind this camera, slightly knock it over, then wait for the guy to come back and readjust it. Then you make that phone call to your friend's friend's friend who works at a scrapyard and goes by the name "Crusher".
always a good idea to be friendly with the guy who collects the trash - even if you just chat long enough to find out whether you are in the middle of his round or toward either end.......
Or friends "gunner" , "hacksaw" , "hammer" and "slip-knot"
The next Saw movie needs a new star victim.
Lol I was just commenting the same thing.
There’s also Mr hole digger and trash picker upper.
The law is stricter for citizens who obey it than for criminals until they are caught. From there alone it was clear who lost.
its extremely important that criminals have rights, probably more so than you yourself having rights as a non criminal, because if someone wanted to take your rights away (like owning a firearm perhaps) all they would have to do is accuse you of a crime, label you a criminal, and youre now fuxed because you dont think criminals should have rights.
besides that, you cant punish someone for something they havent done. you cant even punish some for something they PROBABLY will do
@@Acolis ROFLMFAO
@@Acolis Minority Repot much? 🤦♂ 🤦♂
How cute you think these woke da's are actually punishing the criminals once caught, my poor sweet summer child
@@Acolis how can you be a criminal without already committing a crime??
Just before 3 catalytic converters were stolen in our neighborhood drones showed up to make sure the coast was clear. Criminals need to face Justice
Ok, now somebody's thinking out of the box here. I've been trying to get people to wake up and smell the coffee. There is a theft ring of brazen and confident guys that haven't been caught. And somehow they know when people have left. They are in and out with targeted goods. Its not a coincidence.
Ngl that's smart asf. Where I'm from they just pull up cut the converter off in the middle of the day and take off.
With the new low earth orbit/ dept of advanced research project/ globalist drone grid; Ukrainians can now enjoy watching your little girls run through sprinklers on their "private" lawns, from the privacy of their own phone.
These crooks are protected. Our laws don't truly protect us. Move away or find another country. Things will not get better.
Criminals sure do - lets start with every politicial who has accepted a bribe.
You know, no matter what we do to keep family and home safe, there is always someone out to hurt us in some way, stay safe you all
Run, Chicken Little with your "stay safe" posts. Must have been the "co-veed" vacs that scrambled your vocabulary.
I agree I’m glad that kid noticed something off and came across that hidden camera.
Evil will always find a way, but the good will find ways to win
So disgusting. This is what gets these guys off. I cannot even wrap my mind around how many DON'T GET caught.
Creepy AF.... Why are you wearing a mask outside all alone at 3am? He's up to no good 🙅🏾♀️
💯
Yeah!
💯💯💯!....
It's probably a cop that doesn't want to be recognized as a cop.
It's Washington. Those dopey liberals up there wear a mask in the shower
Child trafficking is on the rise in this country. What a good way to monitor kids who may be left waiting for pick up by late parents. Did this ever occur to anyone? We have a neighbor who stalks us in this same manner for which the police do very little, and we even have a protection order against this guy. Keep a close watch on your kids. It only takes a split second for a kid to disappear...
Time to move
I would just walk up and pop his ass Nobody messes with my family
@@catfishman9516or make it known you’ll shoot his ass. An armed society is a polite society.
@Cmore Butts the guy with the cameras was a republican
Child Trafficking is the #1 epidemic in the world! So sickening! Be careful and take care of the little ones!
how is recording underage children, against their parents wishes and on their own private property, not a crime
Keep voting democrat and it'll keep getting worse..
Only in the blue cities/states
I come up with the same thought.
Yep, I agree
Red states consider reading books a crime.. just ask Florida
The Sheriffs office should very easily be able to investigate this as stalking rather than trespassing. If they actually wanted to do anything about it. These cameras should easily be sufficient basis to attain a search warrant to identify and track the credit card linked to the cellular account used to upload the photos.
what stalking?.... there is no privacy or expectation of privacy in public.... everybody can record everything in and from public and there is no law that requires you to personally hold the camera... land of the free my ass, regarding to its own stupid inhabitants...
Cell signals have a mac address, like an ip address it can be tracked with pin point precision
@@robertscheu9771 NOT if on private property
@@Throttle86 topics a bit complicated for you aye love?
@@Throttle86 the greenery on the side of the road where the cam was placed is public property
You’ll never be able to stop this. There is no such thing as ‘privacy’ and you should always assume you are being observed, and you are. Especially in your own home. If you have Alexa abs Siri and tick tok and social media, all of these things ask you to turn on your microphone and you think it’s so you can ask these spies questions, but you are really granting them full surveillance. Your front camera is watching where your eyes are looking when you shop on Amazon, and you are then targeted by advertising that’s specific to what you glanced at. So remember, nothing is private. Everything you do is recorded and documented. All of it. It’ll never go back to what it was.
I tell this to people day in and day out... Some are surprised, some think I'm totally paranoid... And most people know it's happening and don't care .. Because they're not willing to give up any of these things.. Their social media and such... They really don't get, and understand the implications...
Until natural or man made disaster destroys surveillance.
@@28FlyingDutchman Found that out about waders. My hubs and I were talking about fishing waders while shopping and guess what pops up on my phone? I had never looked for waders on any website, shopping site before.
Right? They piss and moan about privacy then go on social media.
@@ccampbell7214 because as an individual the implications aren’t that bad😂 maybe as a whole it’s not good but personally… I really have nothing to hide so track my eyes and spy on me all you want. Your gonna get footage of a dude eating Doritos and doing some shopping and having a conversation with his buddies about sunday night football😅
You have to be smarter than this. Cover the lens and plant your own camera with motion sensing to notify you so you can find out who this creep is. I'm sensing someone very evil who needs to be exposed.
"Once a crime is commited" in other words, we can't do anything until it's too late, but thank you for trying to warn us......
Good point.
Exactly they don't care
That's the problem with our Justice system. It only works retroactively.
We don't get to seek Justice until AFTER the crime is committed.
What are they supposed to do?
@@virgilhilts3924 Not being an imbecile is a start, but yeah waiting for the crime to happen and then complaining about how it could've been stopped later like usual is always the better option. Dumbass
Now the criminals are using the devices that are supposed to monitor your home
No. These are intended for primarily for hunting. That's what's creepier about this.
Turning into the police was mistake. The neighborhood should've pitched in to hire a private investigative firm. Even a novice can learn how to lift prints from the inside and SD card. Then you can hire tech company to do the rest. Because the modem sends these pictures to an email and often straight to a phone.
Back home in the Midwest we use these on trails to see what animals use a trail or area, and when. Also used to monitor your lands for trespassers. Although to be honest most don't care as long as your NOT hunting or taking anything away or littering.
@@amr8457 imm not all that
Crimiinals been dropping cameras - since the 90's.
You should be worried about that camera looking at you right now - everyday; and the one in your pocket - and your wifes pocket, and your kids pockets, and your grandkids pockets.
@@christopherross8358 Oh very true. I've been keeping electrical tape over ALL my phone cameras for at least 6 years if not 7.
Next step is to shed Google. I think I'll try a Linux phone possibly the next phone.
@@amr8457 My comments keep getting removed - Check out Faraday Bags - Ditch the Tape, Blend in. Checkout Mint Mobile.
That’s exactly what’s going on ! The burglars are getting smarter by monitoring the activities of the residents and also the sick bastards who probably take peoples children as well ! Kids and parents be should be very careful !
How do you know it's a burglar or a kidnapper and not an insurance company?
I live in rural area and had a new neighbor move in. I found cameras all along our shared property line. They were all pointed towards my house, above property line. Also found some across road on property neither of us own. I called a few locals and we went and talked to them. They moved from inner city and they had to have them there. And he said we were crazy if we didn't also have cameras.
We told him he can either remove them or turn them towards his property. He did nothing. Some vandal has shot them with a shot gun. Damn vandals...
Neighbors always watching especially if you live in the big cities you can't not trust nobody
If you find these cameras on your property, and are a law abiding citizen, install your own camera to catch your quarry. If wifi or cellular connected, remove the antenna first to make the owner come and check it.
This was my thought exactly
smart
Yeah, law abiding citizen... 😉
Thx night owl
Or just set traps.
I grew up on Rambo and Missing In Action, Macgyver and Conan. Home Alone was made because of kids like me.
Lololol they best watch out, Tazer Bays triggered to motion detectors, collapsible broken glass punjee traps which close around your ankles, dirty syringe (with air bubbles) spears spring loaded, lololololol
The footage will be used to garner patreon $ to replace everything stolen and to watch criminals bite it.
May the odds be forever in your favor.
I found a trail cam in a tree across from an apartment building in my town. I walked slow and stared right at. Next day on my walk home from work,it was gone.
Start carrying a can of spray paint. When you find a camera, just squirt the lens. Then you can watch for the sucker that planted it to come see whats wrong with it.
Only one thinking 🎈A+
❤️😜
Not when the wholeazz kolonized cuntree is a great big human trafikkking hub po’leece BY the predatory SlayvePatrol agents who orchestrate & manage the rings… 👌🏻👺 🇺🇸 🤑
shocking information. Seattle people, it is..time to make a stand to protect your families.
A city that let a bunch of rainbow haired goobers take over blocks of their city for a month… yeah don’t see it happening.
This could be part of that theft ring. They have other cameras in the area and know when people are coming and going. They know when nobody's home and have never been caught. So its either this or some perverted weirdo.
It could also be the cops. They do this kind of thing all the time.
The camera was pointed directly at the bus stop. While it could be part of a theft ring, the pedo angle is a lot more likely.
@@christopheraaron8299the Police are looking for known criminals or suspect vehicles.
They said themself, the neighborhood is spiked with burglaries.
The cameras were focused on a children's bus stop. They weren't thinking about stealing anything but children
@@christopheraaron8299 How many times are you going to say this same thing?
You must of had an encounter or two with police in you're life.
It's good you reported this. There are a lot of creeps out there that could be spying on your children, seeing who's alone in the house, blackmailing someone, who ever is doing this is invading peoples privacy. Talk to your neighbors about starting a neighborhood watch, and plan with your children what to do and where to go if they come into trouble. This is a good warning for others to look out for.
If you feel cameras are an invasion of privacy, you’re in big trouble now.
"Invasion of privacy"? They are on a public street. There is no legal expectation of privacy. What are you talking about?
USA GOVERNMENT got rid of our Law to Privacy. Electronic eyes are LITERALLY EVERYWHERE!
He should install his own cameras and when alerted, politely ask h individual what’s up.
This is not a creep , this is a pro. Simple minded to think that a lowly creep is spending this kind of money just for a little thrill.
The only thing to do is put up your own cameras...
We should be able to see what cellular phone it is connected too. OMG! Child trafficking is on the rise in this country and this is horrible news to find out that our kids are being monitor who may be left waiting for pick up by late parents. It looks as if parents needs to get up early like they do and don't go to sleep on this. Pray for protection over our children.
It's not connected to a cell phone... it's just a wifi hotspot that any device can connect to. That's why the home owners were able access the pictures on it. Literally anyone could have accessed the camera's wifi hotspot and check out the pictures.
Your logic is so illogical... "our kids are being monitor who may be left waiting for pick up by late parents"... the parents aren't picking the kids... the bus takes them to and from school... from their home.
And if someone were actually using the camera to determine when to steal your kids from the bus stop... they would have to be sitting down the road... in a vehicle... close enough to access the camera's wifi... and if they were that close... why would they need the camera?
It seems more logical that the camera was placed there by an insurance company attempting to catch someone claiming to be injured in a false claim, than to be placed there by someone who wants to steal children...
@@jimmy_kirk wtf? At 3 a.m? Ok pedo
@@SmoothOperaturr If you actually watched the video, you'll see that the focus wasn't on the children, it was on the vehicles coming and going. The guy who found the camera even stated that.
If you find something like this , DO NOT MOVE OR REVEAL IT until you catch the owner retrieving it red handed!
That would worry me if I had kids too. Creepy.
If I had kids, I'm walking them with 3 big dogs. I raised my younger siblings and never let them walk home alone unless they are confident in their instincts or with friends they always mention.
Pretty creepy! I am absolutely certain the Seattle PD WILL NEVER SOLVE THIS MYSTERY, without citizen assistance.
🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
You are correct. This is in Redmond. Not SPD.
@@Chris-fq4xz Damn! No matter, about 15 miles away. Same citizens, same criminals, same cops, same dope addicts, same homeless (dope addicts), same crappy policies! The whole state is pretty much FU*k*d these days.
imma make a sub red rn
Very creppy
Looks like it may be an older guy doing it. I would be waiting in the bushes and that dude would be pulp.
He could trip and hurt himself out there in the dark.
@@shabbykat273 Or a rogue, 14 ft. alligator could be hungry one nite.
He looks Spanish, and he does not look old .
Screen shot it and then blow it up
The best thing you can do when the police tell you there's "nothing they can do" is to turn it over to your local news just like this man did. Let's hope he finally got some legal action going. I mean, whoever it is is watching kids.
Or take justice into your own hands because the police won't arrest cohorts.
When in public you have no expectations of privacy.
Should have left the cameras and waited for the guy to pick them up and then get him!
Should of put a camera on the camera to catch the guy
@@manuelferreira4345 yeah. Instead they take the cameras and put it on the news. Pretty much letting the guy know they are on to him.
@@not-much-but-enough Dude, it's most likely that police are the ones that planted the cameras.
Man, hindsight is always 20/20... but if I found images of my teenage daughter on the camera, I'd be waiting there, out of sight, strapped, at 3:00 in the morning, ready to have a nice discussion with whomever showed up for the camera.
As soon as one is found, the search for others should begin and the placement of watchers in shifts should keep eyes on the neighborhood until the thorough search is completed....simple
Yeah, simple waste of time that is.
Thank GOD for this guy's curious little boy, and for his (dad's) subsequent diligence!
1. Have they complained to or about their kid’s school, curriculum, teachers or school board?
2. Voter registration?
3. Community activism (abortion, Covid, voter fraud etc..)
4. They live in Washington state, how far from Portland? It is the number one human trafficking site in the country.
We can no longer just assume that it’s a street criminal up to nefarious activities, the criminals in our government are also up to nefarious activities.
I have studied, trying to protect the children in our family, and learned enough to know that a child predator often seeks out children who have few or no friends. What a great way to look for one - at the bus stop. I am glad to know the local families do not send their children to the bus stop alone in the morning and I hope someone is there to greet them in the afternoon!
Only rich assholes are home to walk kids to the bus stop and to wait for them when they are dropped off from school in the middle of the afternoon. If you are home to greet your kids at 3 in the afternoon, you are part of the problem with America. Why are you not working three part time jobs?
Somebody get a dog. Who will love to escort kid to bus stop, stay until picked up, greet the child upon return. Creeps hate dogs.
They could designate a parent for weekly shifts...preferably one with a German shepherd & pepper spray. (Just a thought)
@@helpis0ntheway Not to pick holes in your spelling but you spelt GUN wrong. Glad I could help. Have a nice day. Stay safe.
Hard thing with trail cams and such these days, the real problem is police inability to do anything or understand whats going on in some cases. All it takes is some smart people or person and finding them isn't too hard especially these days
Also, never underestimate police laziness.
Than I would just put out a rusty bear trap and damage the camera so they have to come check on it. Put up my own trail cam facing it to catch it.
No. There is a lot they can do, if they wanted. If they don't understand why this is serious, a camera placed to record kids at the school bus stop, then they are too stupid to hold their jobs and need to be fired immediately. If they do get the import of this and refuse to act then they are corrupt or lazy and need to be fired. It sounds like they have not taken this seriously nor deigned to do any investigation apart from taking a statement, looking at the video, washing their hands and getting back to their internet surfing. If this was a bus stop where an important person's kids were being recorded then maybe they would make the effort. They haven't tried to rack the purchase of the two trail cams nor have they triangulated cell signals to get the phone number and Id the creep that way. Zero effort. Hope there is huge political blowback and they end up looking like the lazy idiots they are.
"Inability" or that they just don't give enough of a fuk to even try?
@Teresa Goodman-Walters good way to catch several felonies. Not to bright at you? Especially if a innocent child gets hurt.
If installing cameras to spy on a number of home owners is not a crime then it follows that getting better footage of the guy who is installing cameras isn't going to do much unless he commits a crime and who wants to wait around for that? I'd go down there and smash the cameras and leave them where they are. If he installs more (which he won't), smash them again. Those people need to get that potential burglar or kidnapper out of their neighborhood because the police are not in the business of preventing crimes so much as making arrests (sometimes) after crimes are committed.
@Steve Fox Then other people would know why it's there. Obviously
@@windsofmarchjourneyperrytr2823
It's possible someone else in the neighborhood does in fact know, and the dad just didn't happen to ask that person.
They already mentioned the neighborhood is spiked with burglaries.
Somebody is gathering evidence.
AND then the owner of the camera gets YOUR pic and has YOU ARRESTED FOR DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY WHICH IS AGAINST THE LAW FOOL!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess anti surveillance companies need to be accessed by the public. This way, we can actually fight back against the cyber criminal of any variety.
US needs to enforce manufacturers to have built-in unique serial numbers for each camera and resellers to register buyers' names and addresses and link the serial number with the sale.
All establishment's criminal's need to be addressed ASAP enough is enough 😡
If whoever's pulling them out there at 3am is obviously up to no good!!
This is a very secluded part of Redmond out in the woods. criminals will be out there any time after midnight to carry out their criminal activities.
Set up ambushes. Take your area back
This is you burning in the hell you created. Burn!
@@tomedmondson5236 darn right!
@@tomedmondson5236 darn right!
This is ridiculous. Anyone filming minors should be investigated and that should be considered a crime. As a teacher, you're not allowed to film your own students.. but a stranger has the right to? Right. Makes sense.
It's like this too.....y9u want me to sign out the kids, but then you will condone them to have medical treatment without my consent? Another reactionary law
There are a number of things they could do to try to find out who this pedo is but they obviously can't be bothered. If they won't make the smallest effort to protect innocent children then what good are they?
The problem for the police is that they don't know for a fact that's why the cameras were placed there.
Exactly! This angers me.
Obviously you don’t have the kinds of predators who are also minors that I have in my neighborhood. I tried to take a picture of my yard with my first cell phone and a whole gang of them appeared each with a camera taking close ups then their pedophile father comes out screaming because like you people who groom kids to use a camera that young are usually falsely accusing everyone around them who does not have a five year old that skilled with a camera.
Who ever put these cameras out should immediately come forward and explain his actions. If it is for non nefarious reasons, and no laws have been broken, he is in no trouble.
Creep is and should be in trouble!
Creep!
that's not a typical trail cam, that's an expensive piece of hardware right there. Big brother
Should have put your own trail cam up an when he came back catch him in the act!
Most of the time it is someone who is very close by. 9/10 it's your very own neighbor! Someone who you know! Scary!
Time to arm yourself my friend👏🏾
Why turn them in to the police if they are not going to do anything. Give it to a private investigator. I will not give any potential criminal the opportunity to kidnap one of my children or plan a home invasion as they can track your movements and get to know your daily routine!
Set a camera up watching the other camera and see who comes collecting the images.
You need to track the serial numbers. Suspicion is reason enough any other time..why not in this situation? So it counts when cops want to beat people but not when someones clearly setting up a street for kidnapping/robbery.
If the cams are identical they were almost certainly bought at the same time. That would make it far easier to conduct a search. They could also track cell phones in the area. The creep's phone would be the only one moving at 3 am and then leaving that area. All of this they can do without having to get up from their desks. Lazy morons.
EZ detective work
To be fair it's not just police. It also involves prosecutors and judges. Prosecutors are the ones who make a call on whether or not to charge someone, judges are the ones who decide whether or not to sign warrants. If the cops knew ahead of time that prosecutors/judges wouldn't be interested in the case because there's no undeniable evidence of a crime then they won't even bother asking for a warrant since they know they'll be denied.
@@bestieswithtesties Most prosecutors and a lot of judges are elected officials that are more concerned about their own careers and life trajectories than about the people they serve. They will be out of office on a rail if they decline to pursue or prosecute a pedo.
Waste of time for cops unless actual crime is committed.
Its no surprise we live in a sick world
My neighbor has cameras pointed at our house and he has a record of child sa. He's from Washington state and moved to Florida and was creepy from day one. Finding out all of the children's birthdays in the neighborhood and buying them expensive toys that got thrown out by myself and my other neighbor for fear of cameras inside them. There's nothing we can do but my husband made it clear we are getting a fence between our front yards on the property line.
Same here....They even lied to cops as why they put cameras and spotlights up but the cops never asked to see the proof on the cameras recording. I am going as far as to make ALL improvements to the rear of my property and MAKE the front look like hell. WE should design a flag//sign with cleaver words like lets go Brandon but refer to perverts that watch and talk about you 24/7.
Get a pitbull as well. And a chihuahua to alert someone is there.
@@JoseGonzalez-il8zh Rotties will work, too. They're not playing.
Was this recent? I mean SA residences are right online, very easily findable. Photos and all.
Go find his PO and complain LOUDLY and OFTEN.
Perverts need thar shite tattooed on their forehead so they stay away from people
Get a powerful laser and ruin his cameras. Buy it in cash, away from home. Point it into the cameras while being covered up. Nobody should tolerate some pedo in their neighborhood full of children. They have to live somewhere so let it be a shack on the outskirts of town where there are no kids around.
This is so jacked up.. I live in Colorado… makes you wonder if this is a “ thing” .. thank you for alerting everyone.
There are cameras all around our property. We know who owns them. He drives by many times a day recording my girls out playing in our own yard. Police say no crime has been committed. And it would be a crime for me to interfere in any way or take the cameras down.
Very odd and creepy.
Its Creepy but it's not illegal. The creep was totally trying to fish out his next underaged victim so he can figure out the routine of the bus and where the kids go. Stay vigilant. Good job noticing it.
It's more likely that police are the ones that planted the cameras. We live in a police state and they've been busted doing this many many times.
"It's creepy but it's not illegal."
As they then go on to describe what they're most likely doing. Bruh when the crime happens, you people as a whole will complain the law doesn't work. AGAIN
That's really unsettling- I wonder how long that's been going on- very disturbing
that is crazy that the police say there is no crime. Placing that camera was a crime.
Note to self, if I find myself in this situation do not call the police, just hire an investigator to track the owner down.
Wow that’s really scary!
Becoming a wireless engineer in the early years of my IT career was a blessing in disguise. Since then I’ve learned a lot about wireless frequencies and how to detect and classify and even jam. Not saying I own a jammer wink wink just saying if one were to suspect a cellular camera near them one could jam its freq band and someone might just show ip to inspect their equipment.
You need a channel to show us how.
This is so cool, I'm work in networking too and wireless is so challenging but so cool to learn about
@@YourMamaNeedsJesus it is a great field to work in and always very busy. I’ve traveled to 7 diff countries implementing wireless technologies in all of them. Now I get to stay home and work so I can spend more time with my wife and kids. We need more networks engineers there is a shortage for sure.
@@mommajones3217 I would actually love to do a channel. Right now I’m teaching my son the rope of network engineering and coding and. Between that and coaching sports and work it’s hard to find spare time. Maybe when I finally retire I will have the time to run a channel. Good idea!
@@EagleFang48 I heard a similar story if a family who rented an air bnb. The father knew these tricks and began searching as soon as they arrived. He found another wifi or signal from a camera hidden in a teddy bear in the room designed for children. Who knows what that camera seen before that father discovered that. God Bless😊
So the police said the guy placing the game camera wasn’t breaking the law, was the guy tampering with the camera breaking the law? Or is this one of those lawless zones? Confused… how is the guy placing it not breaking the law? Seems like some sort of peeping Tom law would cover it?
@Steve Fox aka let the freaks roam free and then scream the justice system doesn't work later
Cause its theirs lol
@@getagrip964 Yup. Thanks, Reagan. He dumped all the crazies on the streets, you know.
When the law no longer serves and protects it's citizens than it's time the citizens serve and protect themselves, the law be damned.
Good question, but I'd assume since it was left on public property, the man who found it also didn't break any laws, especially since he turned it into the police station which is what you are legally supposed to do if you find "lost" property. I think it was best to collect the camera so they could have all of the photos/videos saved to the SD card and/or internal memory before they were all deleted remotely. Plus, this creep would be VERY stupid to commit any crimes in that area for the next 5-10 years, lest they look back at the trail cam footage and link him to it...
Bruhhhh, next time handle that with only your neighbors
Schools need to be notified of this so they can alert parents in the area. No child should be tracked like this.
Criminals know exactly who is where all the time. Clever.
That’s an unacceptable answer from local law enforcement. This could well be part of a human trafficking network. I’d contact the FBI.
It's more likely that police were unresponsive because it's their camera that they planted there.
It could just as easily be someone wanting to keep an eye on their own kid
Or wanting a record of who pulls into their driveway or passes by due to the stated rise in crime in the area
@@christopheraaron8299 That wasn't nearly expensive enough a camera for them. They only ever have the absolute top-of-the-line equipment. And that was no cop placing it at 3 am.
Because like it or not, when you're in public you have no expectation of privacy. Anything anyone can see from public with the eye can also be recorded. If you want privacy, then build a fence around your property or go inside your house and close the curtain or blinds.
There is no expectation of privacy in a public place. Not saying this camera is right, but its your right to record anything you can see in a public place or on federal property. Yoh are recorded at your local grocery store, post office, wal mart, and street corner.
Big brother is always watching!
I live in Jackson county Oregon and we have had the same kind of thing happen to us and some others in my community people are saying it is what's called gang stalking. The purpose is to monitor, track a targeted individual to commit life insurance fraud. We have had three deaths in my community linked to this type of activity.

Well, yeah, because they probably already know who it is, one of their own. Cops have been caught many many times planting cameras in this fashion.
No suspicion there at all they've only done many times before for many different excuses
It's also not illegal to put your favorite picture up in front of one of these cameras just to scare them. Use pictures of your neighbors faces, when it comes down and doesn't go back up you'll know they logged on and saw themselves :)
While pre-crime is still not illegal its also not illegal to find the guy and have the cops talk to him... ask him what he was doing and why... this lets the criminal know he has been spotted and is on their radar. It just might reduce future crime.
I think if his camera caught somebody doing something to his children he would be grateful that man had a camera
You would have better results hiring a private eye and tracking the recipient of those live feeds and see if they are offenders or on a watch list. "Found Property" gets tossed in 60 days or so unless claimed by the owner or the finder takes effort to claim the property.
Exactly! in 60 days the cop who took the camera as evidence will take the camera as his own personal property
Here in KY the police have used those in the past to monitor a homes traffic or pot patch or watch trash dumping areas for trash illegal dumping......just throwing that out there
Great job son!! Your amazing for spotting that hidden camera!! 💪❤️
I wish Washington was like the town of Chillingbourne - not even one camera. 🚫📸🚫
for the police that won't do anything until a kid dies or disappears, i hope it's your kid that's the victim. 10 bucks says if they took the time to track the guy who set the cameras in place, they would find someone with an existing criminal record.
There is a light or device that makes camera lens glisten or shine when exposed to it.
You'll be surprised at the amount of hidden cameras stored in trees or post.
I'd bet dollars to donuts the person that placed the cameras there is a police officer/sheriff's deputy. It seems like something they would do.
A doughnut cost much more than a dollar
Yup
Creepy cops
@@deborahwhit118 yuppp
Do you think this is a movie?
Why didn't you watch the camera and catch the guy?
But yet Seattle police also harassed a guy sitting on a bench because they were suspicious that a crime "is either being committed, or will be committed."
All the damn time, you hear cops talking about "if a crime is about to be committed" as justification for stopping people...
My neighbor put one up facing my back door with audio. I had no idea. It's super creepy to FIND this junk out.
Hidden cameras are everywhere. You can see little red flashing light at night in the trees.❤❤❤
Saw one just last night in my neighbor's yard, pointed directly at my house. These same people cut every single tree down in that side yard. (I'm on a corner so my backyard faces the side of their house) They have also been systematically denuding my row of cypress trees in my yard along my split rail fence. Suddenly, I find there's a camera aimed at my screened back porch, back door and possibly my bedroom windows? Creepy. It's a quiet neighborhood with no crime... I could understand a camera there pointed toward the front or toward the rear to catch anyone sneaking around the side of the house toward their screened porch, patio and pool, but pointing it at my house serves no protective purpose.
I love how police can’t do anything til it’s too late 😤
By law who ever put up the camera didn't do anything illegal.
Then why did he attempt to hide it?
You hear all the time with stalking cases etc nobody listens then someone is killed…. It should least be investigated
Dude, police are probably the ones that planted the cameras there.
@@B.cest-la-vie Because he's probably a cop.
Its probably someone in law enforcement or government that is stalking your kids
US laws suck, they wanna wait for harm to be done before they investigate. They should contact the company and the camera owner and find out what the hell is going on and surveil the person to ensure they are not a documented offender. They should satisfy the residents with an explanation, the residents should be able to speak to this person to decided whether he is a threat!!
Technology has outpaced antiquated laws and lacks an understanding of how criminals use technology; the person who set up these cameras would have already released the compromised devices, wiped anything stored in the cloud, and deleted their accounts. Jim Browning, a TH-camr that tries to stop phone scammers, couldn't get the police to drive to a local shop and prevent this lady from converting $12,000 from her bank account into bitcoins and sending it off to the scammers because "The lady would have to call the police first" it's so infuriating.
Spray paint the camera and wait to see who comes to check it.
Scary as hell. Sick bastard who did this. Criminals these days get a slap on the wrist. It's horrible the path society is taking.
You don't know who did it or why... so it seems absurd that you're calling them a "sick bastard" when you know nothing about the situation or the person at all.
@Jimmy Kirk 🤣🤣🤣🤣 ya cause anyone that puts 8 cameras in a housing addition in different locations to watch people without their knowledge and by a bus stop where obviously there are kids and wears a mask putting the cameras in and checking on them is surely doing it with the best of intentions. OMG!!!! 🙄. Your thought process leaves me speechless and the fact the guy hasn't come forward saying they were his proves he had the best of intentions and it's a legitimate reason. 🤪
Sick Sick Bastard spying on people and kids learning their routines. Some people are so ignorant and niave. How would you like a camera cross from your house??
@@Sunflower00001 Have you considered that maybe one of the neighbors put the cameras up to catch the kids throwing rocks at his house again?
Have you considered that maybe an insurance investigator installed cameras to catch someone taking out heavy garbage cans to the curb, after filing a false injury claim?
Have you considered maybe the police installed the cameras to capture potential drug sales in the area?
@@Sunflower00001 Why would I care if there's a camera across from my house? There are literally cameras everywhere you go...
People literally stop in front of my house all day long... the community mailboxes are directly across from my front door... there people there all day long... why would I care if they had cameras?
What do you think I'm doing out in public view that I would need privacy from cameras?
It seems absurd that without any details of who put the cameras up or why, you've immediately assumed its criminal in nature and it was done by some "sick bastard".
For all you know, it was some of the neighborhood kids... or the bus driver... or the police... or an insurance company... or a private investigator... or neighbor who wants to catch the thing the kids do to him every day that the kids parents don't believe they do when the neighbor tells them....
People are really crazy I have seen it all somebody placing cameras to watch your coming and going 🤦🏾♀️I’m glad his child found the camera
If anyone from there is reading and find more of these cameras, investigate it without the help of the lazy sheriff. Child trafficking is still a crime.
Someone either wanted to catch burglars, or they were watching so they learn your routine to plan a burglary
That's beyond creepy. Not surprised that law enforcement will not look into it. I guess a child would have to come up missing before the justice system leaps into action smh. Unreal, but sadly, very real.
@Steve Fox Much respect. I understood that part of it. Just saying that prevention of something tragic is key here. If the guy was hanging out everyday in front of those homes and someone reported him, officers would probably be called to have him checked out. In this case, he places cameras and slips away in darkness. The residents should take caution for the simple fact that they don't know his intentions. I personally wouldn't want anything to happen to a child in our society, being a father of 2 myself, but unfortunately it does occur. When we come across such events in the news, it's extremely sad and disturbing. I'm just glad that the cams were discovered, and the residents will be aware. Stay blessed.
@Steve Fox Now that's interesting. Surely someone should have mentioned it in the news story. Seems like the father interviewed doesn't have a clue about said bully. Will definitely be worth seeing the outcome of it all. Thx for the tip. I do appreciate your response. Much respect.
@Steve Fox Track the purchaser of the trail cams, if possible. Triangulate the cell phone and identify the number. This is what they are paid to do. Find out who placed it there and talk to them. We do not spend untold billions on law enforcement because we want them to identify the person that raped and killed our 9-year-old daughter, we hire them to take steps to make it not happen. They actually have a potential chance here to take a potential predator down. If that's not the situation then that's fine. But there will be no excuse if it is the situation and their inaction let it happen.
@@cvn6555 Like Detectives aren't busy enough trying to figure out crimes that already have happened?????
@@cvn6555 you're dreaming. Cops are not paid for that either. We don't want to spend billions as you say, on police wasting time on something that is NOT a crime.
Don't turn anything over to law enforcement. Any evidence will go into a black hole never to be seen again. There are things you can do to achieve the results you need.
A lot of places you can face charges if you don't hand it over, especially if it turns out they belong to law enforcement in the first place. Keep in mind these things are on WiFi so they'll probably have sent pics of who ever found them.
Yep...gonna wait till something happens to use the footage or address the matter. This is how crime is allowed. Take action before the criminals do. I hope everything turns out alright. Please keep us posted.
Yes our laws seem to be reactionary. Laws should be preventative, not reactionary.
They started normalizing the trannies in Seattle and now they're normalizing pedos. It's a slippery slope that never stops
@@haoadams Reactionary laws are not the issue here. The question here isn't "Why can't we do something until there has been a crime committed?".
The real question is "Why is what has transpired, not considered a crime?"
@stevefox1620 I see what you did there, you're so cleaver and the internet is so wonderful. The internet is going ton fix everything, including social warriors like you.
@@youtubesucks1821 that's your interpretation:)
If someone abandons stuff on your property, treat it as discarded trash.
Despicable, scary & frightening.
