“Security Cameras,” the highly-visible feature of ever-delusional “Security Theater”!
Early Friday morning, at least seven dangerous, violent felons escaped from the New Orleans Parish Jail.
They broke through a wall and escaped through the hole they had made.
So far, none [UPDATE three (3)] have been recaptured.
What is interesting is that it took these prisoners hours to break-through the wall, and every tedious minute of this violent, noisy demolition was duly recorded on “security” cameras, INSIDE the jail!
Security cameras that obviously no one was watching!
This escape was, in fact, only “discovered” later in the morning, hours after the inmates had long gone!
Lessons: The often-repeated mantra that “security cameras prevent crime” is so much rubbish. They obviously don’t even prevent crime INSIDE JAILS!
The only purpose these security camera videos serve is to provide TV news networks with interesting footage that they can use to jam between ads! Of course, these recordings may be useful to prosecutors at the criminal trial of violent felons (long after you’re dead and buried).
So, the next time you’re at a shopping mall and notice all the “security cameras” (that no one is watching), and also notice they way they’re always installing more, (that no one will be watching either), think about the critical necessity of providing your own security!
“Here too it’s masquerade, I find: As everywhere, the dance of mind. I grasped a lovely masked procession, and caught things from a horror show… I’d gladly settle for a false impression, if it would last a little longer, though.” ~ von Goethe.

Recently, my running shoe came apart at the under sole of the heal. When glueing it together, I noticed a space in that padding big enough for a hand cuff key. So I put a handcuff key in the space before gluing. Now, I have a hidden handcuff key and I will only wear this pair of shoes for going to town. Not that I will ever need a hidden handcuff key.
I suppose, now, every leo in the country will know about it. I can just hear the computers whiring and satellites connecting up.
To fool surveillance cameras, always wear a hat and sunglasses were out running errands or going to work.
Not only do the shopping malls have numerous security cameras, which they ” claim” will stop shoplifters, but I’ve been seeing more of the Flock surveillance cameras on more and more streets. The Flock surveillance cameras take photos of cars and drivers and send them to thousands of police departments across the country. The Flock cameras show the date, time and license plate numbers and make a pattern of where you drive. The police run the car license plate to see if it is stolen or a warrent out for the drivers arrest However. article said that the Flock cameras… Read more »
Unmonitored security cameras only save the event for the inquest or trial, and only then if they’re recorded. I think Epstein’s “suicide” proved the diligence of jail personnel, even though the camera was “out of order”. Happy convenience for all those on his flight logs, no doubt.
All by design. You can bet your bottom dollar that mall security is watching. Remember that it’s us v them. The parish sheriff runs the jail and let this happen. Guess what? He’ll apologise, maybe catch the remaining seven, and win reelection because he did favours (including this) for the sheeple.
This evening’s news showed footage of them running from the prison building towards the fence and another from this morning (Monday) strolling down the street in the French Quarter. A still photo showed the hole in the wall behind the removed toilet with writing above that said ‘This is Easy. LOL’. It looked like there were steel bars embedded in the wall so only thin convicts could have squeezed through. Total FUBAR by the prison.
