Clark Says Ban On Bugs Won't Limit Crime War
Atty Gen Ramsey Clark told a Senate hearing that outlawing wiretapping and electronic eavesdropping would not aid criminals or curb his department’s war on crime. He argued public safety improves when manpower is used to strengthen law enforcement, courts, and corrections rather than intruding on privacy. The proposal would bar wiretapping even under court order and ban devices used for surveillance, while urging improvements to state and local enforcement machinery.
