Sneak-and-peek warrants allow law enforcement to secretly install cameras inside private businesses to monitor illegal activity.

div > div.group > p:first-child"> It shows hours and hours of male customers having sex with masseuses inside a South Florida massage parlor. Police installed hidden cameras inside the business to capture prostitution on tape.The footage, obtained by CNBC, is from a 2015 South Florida massage parlor investigation where police installed hidden cameras after hiring a locksmith to get inside the business in order to capture prostitution taking place in the rooms.

"From the inception of the investigation, it was clear to us that unless we were able to get inside the massage parlor and actually see what was going on, we would never be able to affect what I've been calling from the very beginning a rescue mission of the women that we thought were being trafficked," Snyder said.

"We did not go in as law enforcement, and did not do any covert breaking and entering. Everything was a ruse," he said.Details about how Jupiter police entered Orchids of Asia Day Spa to install hidden surveillance cameras were revealed in three search warrants related to the case unsealed on Friday.

Court data analyzed by CNBC show that 46,603 sneak-and-peek warrants nationwide were granted between 2006 and 2016. Mike DeMarcus, a retired Florida detective who owns the Atlanta-based Law Enforcement Training Associates, said very few of the thousands of law enforcement personnel his instructors have trained ever heard of the sneak-and-peek warrants.

He said police also have a variety of ruses available such as emptying a business over a supposed suspicious package. This may be critical in a massage parlor investigation where the employees may actually live on the premises. "Just the fact that the government is in your house, or in your business, and you don't know that they're there, is a real privacy invasion," Witmer-Rich said."The whole idea of the Fourth Amendment is that some places in our lives, we can retreat back to our homes. We can relax. We can be ourselves and the government's not in there, they're not watching us. A covert search warrant really changes that calculus.

The court ruled, though, in a 1979 case involving the theft of stolen goods meant for interstate commerce, that covert entry is constitutional in some circumstances. The Fourth Amendment does not prohibit per se a covert entry performed for the purpose of installing otherwise legal electronic bugging equipment, the court found.

Lotta legal gobble gobble in this. Love Robert kraft but it’s still prostitution. Let’s be real

N,M,H,C key Threat model says that Deep State adversaries have a pyramid system of attackers - with fewer arch criminals that are busy. Part of defense is 'How arch is the story of why I am being attacked?' If the story is pu for most levels of the pyramid, u are safer.

So let me get this right... Florida is spending millions to prosecute Kraft for a misdemeanor ?.... and no one was even charged with human Trafficing.... so stupid

Consenting adults shouldn’t be punished for that. If trafficking is involved, however, then bust them.

CNBC social media person you are a hero.

Dude is a billionaire and he goes to a massage parlor? He can buy his own frigging hotel!

Seems like most police in Florida are pedo's. They were very friendly with Epstein and seem to have a deep affection of voyeurism.

I like to install hidden cameras in the women’s bathroom at all Chick-Fil-A and Starbucks locations across the nation legal

Maybe the police had probable cause and a judge signed a warrant for surveillance cameras.

Trumps attorney general says there was nothing fishy about Epstein killing himself. Why is he protecting all these 1%'s from exposure to human trafficking charges?

Wasn’t Human Trafficing the basis for the “sneak and peak warrant”

Just fly to Prague.

So how many people were arrested for Human Trafficing?

This kind of shit should be illegal because It violates constitutional rights of the people entering the spa.

4th amendment? Bill of Rights? Constitution? What's that? Never heard of it. Not in this country.

Wow! When I was mayor I banned all security cameras at city Hall. Must have expectation of privacy while with staff behind closed doors.

Wot

Wtf

how often are u going to run this story?

Bottom line, Robert Kraft got away with being a “John” in a forced prostitution business while others admitted guilt. This is a case of failed justice system in America. Shame on Kraft. Every time I see him on TV at the stadium I’ll remember this.

A old wealthy man who's wife died went to a hooker....we get it, he made a mistake.....Does the press need to persecute him and smear him until he dies?....Here's my question~.. Are Reporters sociopaths?

Guilty Guilty Guilty!!! Funny they showing a black mans' leg

police black mail the patrons?

Legal?

It’s not legal. The warrant was for trafficking. Can you guess if anyone was charged with trafficking. Correct, no one. This is FakeNews

Haven’t seen a movie with a happy ending like this since it’s a wonderful life

Oh! Don't we lrn along the way?

This is an old article from 6 months ago

This rubs me the wrong way...

No it’s not legal, this is a violation of human rights, and they know it.

Because corrupt cops like their amateur porn?

Explains why a billionaire would go there? That's the real story.

On a good day, cops are useless. On a bad day, murderous thugs.

It also reveals how the rich and powerful get special deals from the legal system. He should be doing time in the pokey like most people under the same circumstances.

Still got that video?

What about the people that only went for a massage and didn’t know or commit any crime? Major violation of privacy and the police departments will be sued in a civil suit.

Robert Kraft is just more TrumpTrash. He thinks because he has money law's don't apply to him. He didn't get to be wealthy by being a nice guy or playing by the rules. Nothing will happen to the dirtbag Kraft

You find the videos on pornhub

This is like installing cameras in bathrooms, just to CHECK to see if people are stealing.

Let me get this right.... journalists see NO PROBLEM with the police coming in to YOUR HOME, & installing surveillance equipment, just to CHECK if you are committing a crime!? What if those were legit massages? Don't those people deserve privacy?

So the police wanted to see some porn... A very expesive way to be counting sperm. On the otherhand , The patriot act was installed for national security. NOT FOR THE POLICE CHIEF'S PLEASURE. HOW ABOUT THE JUDGES WHO GRANTED THE WARRANTS AND THE FOURTH AMENDEMENT?

no this shows why Sex shops should be legal and help the states from spending stupid hours and money on something thats not a crime. Who are they hurting if they both consent and an exchange takes place. No one. Its a money grab by the state saying there is a crime when its not

If a woman’s degenerate sex video is leaked without permission, it becomes “revenge porn.” If a man’s sex film is released without permission, it’s fair game.

And no trafficking was found, this whole cause is government over reach. Imagine what they can do to anyone if they try this with a famous billionaire

Also, by paying its debt of reparations to Black descendants of American slavery, the US economy would explode into economic win win.

Prosecutorial over-reach!!!! There has not been a single trafficking indictment.. This was intended to satisfy the prurient and voyeuristic interests of law enforcement officials and your own in-depth analysis proves it. Better quality sex videos are available on the internet.

Because you’re all perverts and the police are complicit yt nationals

A life’s work down the drain. Run don’t hide Sir.

Krafty just wanted savvy ball play.

A thread where you can play spot the scumbag and identify the incel !

Because this guy supports Trump you keep putting this up. Pathetic.

Old white man gets away because he has 💵

Government wants to be everywhere and monitor you! Bye-bye freedom

Should be illegal, abuse of government power.

Everything anti-American is legal in Florida. When they aren’t sending anthrax to US senators, they are teaching Al-Queda to go kamikaze on wall street, or teaching kids to bring guns to school🙄

HISTORY OF MACLANE'S tx paid: ☆FUGITIVE N0 I.D., ☆GHOSTING POLICE ASSASSINS.......

But turn up no evidence

Cops be fappin'.

Ridiculous, leave consenting adults alone.

The patriot act gave all our freedom away

What a deal! Getting paid to watch porn. whysthisacrime?

Actually it has not been determined to be legal. Currently it has been thrown out and is under review by an Appeals court.

4 Hope you discuss corrupt police officers in USA and other countries. Excessive fines banned by Amendment 8 should be discussed. Competent journalism like you normally provide is rare in tv news outside of PBS.

You do realize the tapes aren't admissible because, wait for it.... THEY WERE ILLEGAL. Right?

3 Read about violence against prostitutes by police officers. Read about police officers refusing to test rape kits. How many people been raped and murdered because police officers have refused to do their jobs. You did great job on Human Trafficking and Counterfeits.

2 at least 18 years old is not legal. Prostitutes should be allowed to own brothels and have armed security guards.

1 Police officers, others involved are criminals and should spend over 10 years in prison doing hard time. Want to better understand why Bill of Rights exists read Declaration of Independence. Keep in mind lot of prostitutes been murdered because prostitution for people

I will still eat his cheese and macaroni ,, every body has a little fun once in a while

We ALL need to create the DISCONNECT from realDonaldTrump ! Unfollow and disconnect from his lies and racism! REFUSE to follow HIM and be free of drama, have time to do things that make a difference for America and ALL Americans! unfollowtrump UFT

typical of government to intrude in the affairs of consenting adults

Where can we find this video? Like what website?

consenting adults😉

Very encouraging for the law enforcement to root out the evils.politico washingtonpost

Anyone other than the authorities that watches it is creepier than the people in the video.

Wow. They broke in and installed cameras. 😳 That’s messed up

How about make them legal then, so you can regulate them. You shouldnt be telling two grown adults what they can do in a private room anyways, let alone secretly film them, perverts.

World, r u ok?

Doesn't seem right that you got the video. Bunch of perverts?

Tee-hee

How many happy endings did they have to film before they shut down this illegal operation?

Damn it. I hope the cam was set up to get my good side at least.

Please don’t show old men paying for it..

Offering sex for money is harmless and happens in all aspects of our society, rich and poor. Legalize the damn thing and stop wasting scarce resources on these voyeuristic pursuits.

A Florida judge decided to suppress police surveillance footage of New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft from a prostitution case, ruling that the evidence was illegally obtained.

Maybe they plot terrors whilst getting handjob

BTW... the header to the Patriot Act reads, 'Uniting and Strengthening America by providing appropriate tools required to intercept and obstruct Terrorism.' To say that it was meant to be used to justify the South Florida PD placing cameras in massage parlors is ridiculous. 😇

The use of hidden cameras by police in South Florida through 'sneak&peak' warrants under the Patriot Act will likely result in Constitutional Challenges. The Patriot Act was never intended to enable law enforcement to justify an invasion of privacy to investigate sexual activity

There it is. It's all to legitimize invasion of privacy. disgusting

Does that mean they can spy on you anywhere?

Really men? You care about this? What about new coffee machines designs?

Whose the weirdos?

Because government sponsored revenge porn is okay.

Um, why don't you take a break from the internet for awhile.

It was just a few pumps

I think I saw this on pornhub

What Robert Kraft has demonstrated is how he can engage in sex with enslaved sex workers, brow beat the Florida Sheriff Department, and twist the courts in the wind!

And it absolutely is NOT legal. It’s a clear violation of the fourth amendment. Ask the three dozen INNOCENT people that were viewed NAKED by law enforcement through voyeurism and are now FIGHTING to put the videos on PUBLIC display like revenge porn. Those poor women...

Your tax dollars at work. Millions upon millions of tax dollars used to chase after a few misdemeanors all while there is VIOLENT crime on the streets and REAL human trafficking. But let’s put that money to work trying to embarrass a few rich white guys right? That’s way better.

Pass the popcorn. 🤮
