A British court sentenced two men to jail for using government-operated street cameras to spy on a woman in her home. Mark Summerton got four months in prison and Kevin Judge got two months for training the camera on the woman's flat. Images of the woman, including her without her clothes on, were shown on a large monitor of a control room operated by the Sefton Council in Merseyside. Team leader Vincent Broadrick received 200 hours of community service for misconduct in public office in connection to the surveillance.
