Pa. Updates Wiretap Law
Governor Tom Corbett recently signed into law a bill to update the Wiretap Act to include the use of modern technology in order to track and bring to justice the most serious criminals. Act 202 of 2012 will incorporate digital technology, such as digital telephony, caller ID and voicemail into the Wiretap Act, says State Rep. Jim Cox (R-129)
These changes aim to keep law enforcement one step ahead of criminals that deal drugs, engage in organized crime, intimidate witnesses and victims, possess child pornography and support terrorist activity. The act was last updated in 1998.
