What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Georgia
Good morning. I had no idea where to post this but since my reason has to do with domestic violence I’ll put it here. Brief background. I was battered by my ex a few years back and was granted a TPO which has since expired. We share custody of our kids and I am always fearful for my safety when we have to make exchanges. I have been wearing a hidden camera that also records audio every time we make an exchange just to protect myself. I have a lot of video saved up. None of it shows any violence but there are several verbal threats recorded.
Can these be admissible to help me get another TPO or is the hidden camera illegal? My understanding is that as long as it was a public place then it’s OK. Unfortunately, some of the video is from the hallway outside the other party’s apartment. Is that still considered a public place?
Thank you!
