San Francisco Video Surveillance Cameras Having A Tough Time Fighting Crime
Small suggestion: If you're going to invest in video surveilance cameras throughout your cities high crime areas, deal with the inevitable political fallout from civil liberties groups, and incur the wrath of financial critics for the on-going costs of maintaining video cameras - make sure they work!
The San Francisco Chronicle writes an article showing that "choppy" and "grainy" footage of actual crimes in progress is leaving law enforcement authorites without clear evidence to press charges.
Take a look at this link and see if you can find when the crime was committed in between the sequence of photographs taken.
Maybe the city by the bay needs more bandwidth.
Being Extreme Liberals, they probably bought half-assed equipment to begin with...on purpose!

it's not the bandwidth...it is the frame rate of the cameras that is the problem. they are not capturing images fast enough. that was excusable 10 years ago, but not today!
