Massachusetts S1093 provides a defense to prosecution for wiretap law violations when interceptions are made to record threats, harassment, or other.
Massachusetts S1093 amends the state's wiretap law to provide a defense to prosecution for interceptions made to record threats, harassment, or other crimes. Specifically, it allows individuals to disclose recordings made in relation to divorce or child custody matters, or in relation to orders issued under Chapter 209A or 258E. The burden of proof shifts to the prosecution to demonstrate by a preponderance of the evidence that such conduct was exempt.
