Video Monitoring

The Video Monitoring Program is a community-based, grassroots effort in partnership with residents, businesses and police.

In 1998, Community Prosecutors worked to secure the passage of video monitoring legislation, and since then, the Department of the Prosecuting Attorney has successfully defended the new law and the use of video evidence against legal challenges.  Prosecutors continue to use the video evidence obtained from the video cameras installed in Chinatown, the nearby Honolulu waterfront, and Waikiki.
