Smile, You're on ProstieCam!

Tired of people soliciting prostitutes, the city of Lynwood, California has installed cameras in hopes of deterring crimes:

The cameras can zoom in on individuals soliciting prostitutes and take a picture of them or videotape the incident.

The images could be used to prosecute those in question, according to sheriff's Lt. Ely Vera.

The city hopes to install nine more cameras by early December.

Just five months ago, hundreds of residents marched down Long Beach Blvd. -- a notorious area for prostitution -- amongst used condoms on the street, demanding the city take action.

i was in the Long John Silvers drive thru... on the window, there was a sticker that said that they had time lock safe blah blah blah blah and they MIGHT have closed circuit security cams. i'm not sure how much of a deterrent MIGHT is, but if they were springing for the stickers they could have at least bought a fake plastic security camera to hang in the corner...
