Re: 05/07/2007
In reference to the LAX videotape, FBI -HQ also requests
that Los Angeles conduct appropriate research on what type of video camera
devices and/or cameras were ava ilable in 2000. Specifically what type
of camera devices could be carried in the palm of your hand and the type
of images that could be recorded.
On numerous occasions, FBI -LA and FBI -SD representatives
have attended coordination meetings with FBI -HQ CTD to discuss the status
of captioned investigations. At this stage of the investigation, FBI -HQ
does not believe a coordination meeting is necessary. FBI -LA is requested
to continue liaison efforts with FBI -San Diego and FBI -HQ regarding any
updated activity associated with captioned investigations.
