FOBP purchased several cameras,
and launched our FREEDOM (or Free Electronic Domestic Observation
and Monitoring) System on April 1, 2006, in San Diego, CA. We tested
off the shelf materials over the course of several months and
and came up with a camera system that can benefit law enforcement at
zero cost to the taxpayers via appropriations to the Border Patrol
and other law enforcement agencies. In other words, donations would
have given the Border Patrol a tool they could've utilized in real time,
and was being provided at no cost to the government, that's right not one
penny of cost to the taxpayers... FREEDOM, after successful development
was terminated due to lack of financial support. Stills From Freedom Camera
Smugglers use cutting torch on fence
These still photographs, taken from a mobile camera on the Mexican border, shows how border cameras including our Freedom Camera system works. A volunteer, monitoring his home computer, notices suspicious activity at the border fense. A probable smuggler, shown in the first photograph, is using a cutting torch to cut open a section of fense large enough for vehicles to drive through. The second photograph shows several vehicles gathering, waiting for their opportunity to cross into the United States. The volunteer immediately calls the Border Patrol. Within minutes, as shown in the third photograph, the Border Patrol arrives on the scene and the would-be intruders leave. The fourth photgraph shows a Policia Municipal truck from Tecate, Mexico arriving conveniently after the incident. In the fifth photo we see a close-up taken afterwards, which shows how easily the fence can be cut away in a short time and, if the entire section is removed, how easily vehicles can drive through it. The opening would be large enough for heavy vehicles carry large quantities of narcotics, aliens, or even weapons of mass destruction. A network of cameras across the border is essential for the security of United States.
