The Department of Homeland Security now says that two weeks of critical surveillance footage from within Immigrations and Customs Enforcement’s Broadview detention center wasn’t actually lost in a “system crash,” but rather, was never recorded in the first place. It is also arguing that, had the footage been recorded, it would be irrelevant because prisoner living conditions have improved since the time it was supposed to be recorded.

    Although, it does also mean that you can record the call and it can be used in a court of law.

      You’d think, but unless you recorded it for quality assurance purposes, that is not the case.
