Ox: "Miss Eiffel is cheating customers" TJ: "Noticed that, huh? That's why I keep this in my vest" Ox: "Your phone?" TJ: "Been recording conversations with her for months. Got great ammo" Ox: "She's a bad person. She shouldn't be manager" TJ: "Ooo! Say that again"
It should come as no surprise that TJ would run the long game -or that he would have the smarts AND patience to do so.AS for the public place, no expectation of privacy bit, uhm, its a little more complicated than that. In some states its just not legal to record someone without permission -and the case would have to be challenged on a ‘per-case’ basis. Since it is rare that any two are identical. Wasn’t long ago when one made the news in Maryland, the ‘victim’ was getting berated and fined by a traffic cop, and he recorded the entire incident on his ‘smart’ phone. The DA actually charged him for it. I don’t know if he ultimately won his case or not, but even if he DID, it doesn’t get around all the trouble and money he had to spend to defend himself -and the ‘state’ (or city or whatever -call it government by any other name) does not reimburse the winner of the trial. And most government levels have immunity from being sued for such things (or the amount at which you can sue is negligible.) -so, right or wrong, you can still get burned.
