Where do you think they got the idea for that law?  :)

"Under state law, Jean could be jailed for up to two years if tried and
convicted of taking the tape public, provided she knew it was
intentionally
recorded without the permission of state police."

That seems absurd.  Were California state police asked before the King
tape
went public?

In certain situations (not this one), it may be the case that
the police don't want to disclose the tactics they use to make
arrests (for example in hostage situations).  Perhaps they feel
that if they don't attempt to uniformly exercise the
restrictions that it will send the message that it is okay?
