Shirts or coats that have an inside pocket or a chest pocket work best.

Always make sure that you have a fresh charge on your battery's and that the battery's inside are charged enough to allow for the personal business you may have to do in your day.

It is very important that you brace the hold key into position so that you do not accidentally trip the PLAY or RECORD buttons and disrupt the recording or give away what you are doing to neutralize aggressors.

I use Cigarettes as a prop a brace and also to have a valid reason to go into and out of the pocket without creating suspicion.


Basically going into your pocket for cigarettes (the prop) allows you to turn it on and off or to move to another recording or to check the battery time.

This model is good it can do WMA lossless (Pretty good fidelity and also does not drain battery's) and also Mp3 which is not lossless so if you copy the files and lose the originals then they degrade overtime, but they are of a higher fidelity than the WMA Loss-less and they drain battery power faster much faster.


Most Reliable Brand and also very cost effective based on how long they last and also how fast they recharge having four is good	two on and two in standby

Battery Charger is good and cheap.

This is a Verbatim CLON and it has very good stability even though it is not very fast it has NERO which is a hard-drive transfer application that allows for everything on it to be transferred with no errors and also for the data to remain consistent and viable.

I will now show one example of how good it is on showing fact in the moment by documentation in regards to questionable behavior of others.

I didn't really ask him things or lead him into admitting these things he was just being abusive and goading or trying to get me to go off about things that he had done that caused me a lot of time and money and on his part they were racially motivated, and were suggested by staff at the clinic that we receive mental health services at.

California's Civil and Criminal Laws Pertaining to Hate Crimes

Civil Statutes

1) "The Ralph Act," Civil Code sections 51.7 and 52--provides that it is a civil right for a person to be free of violence or its threat against the person or his or her property, because of a person's race, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, political affiliation, sex, sexual orientation, age or disability or position in a labor dispute, or because a person is perceived to have one or more of these characteristics--(bases of discrimination are illustrative, rather than restrictive)
Enforced by the Department of Fair Employment and Housing, which prosecutes, and the Fair Employment and Housing Commission, which adjudicates, and by the Attorney General, any district or city attorney and by private attorneys
Provides for civil penalties of up to $25,000 for perpetrators, civil remedies to victims of "hate violence," three times actual damages, but no less than $1000, punitive damages, injunctive relief and attorney's fees
2) "The Bane Act," Civil Code section 52.1 --provides protection from interference by threats, intimidation, or coercion or for attempts to interfere with someone's state or federal statutory or constitutional rights (these include association, assembly, due process, education, employment, equal protection, expression, formation and enforcement of contracts, holding of public office, housing, privacy, speech, travel, use of public facilities, voting, worship, and protection from bodily restraint or harm, from personal insult, from defamation, and from injury to personal relations)-- proof of "hate motivation" required, according to a 1994 Court of Appeal decision in Boccato v. City of Hermosa Beach
Enforced by Attorney General, any district attorney or city attorney, or a private attorney
Provides for civil penalties for perpetrators, civil remedies to victims of "hate violence," three times actual damages, but no less than $1000, punitive damages, injunctive and other equitable relief (violation of the injunctive relief is punishable by a criminal contempt action, with a penalty of six months in jail and/or a fine not exceeding $1000) and attorney's fees
Speech alone is not sufficient to support an action under the Bane Act, unless the speech itself threatens violence against a specific person or group of persons, and the person or group of persons against whom the threat is directed reasonably fears that, because of the speech, violence will be committed against them or their property and that the person threatening the violence had the apparent ability to carry out the threat
No order shall restrict the content of a person's speech
An order restricting the time, place or manner of any person's speech shall do so only to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the peaceable exercise or enjoyment of constitutional or statutory rights, consistent with the constitutional rights of the person sought to be enjoined

Temporary Restraining Orders, Preliminary and Permanent Injunctions

Means of securing the attention and cooperation of police and law enforcement agencies
Bane Act's Civil Code section 52.1(e) requires that Bane Act injunctive orders be served on the law enforcement agencies having jurisdiction where the plaintiff resides and any other locations where the court determines that acts of violence against the plaintiff are likely to occur--two copies are served on law enforcement; law enforcement serves one on defendant--if officer called in response to violation of order, police agency is required to provide the responding officer a copy of the order
Permits enforcement in civil contempt or criminal prosecution
