Outrageous! Government Listening in On Prisoner Phone Calls To Attorneys (Picture, Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

The data provided to The Intercept also includes at least 27 recordings of calls to attorneys in Austin, Texas, made between December 2011 and October 2013 — a fact that is particularly compelling in light of a federal civil rights suit filed there in 2014 against Securus, which provides phone service to the county’s jails. At the heart of the lawsuit is the allegation that calls to known attorneys have been — and continue to be — recorded. The company’s contract specifically provides that calls “to telephone numbers known to belong [to] attorneys are NOT recorded” and that “if any call to an attorney is inadvertently recorded, the recording is destroyed as soon as it is discovered.”

The lawsuit was brought by the Austin Lawyers Guild, four named attorneys, and a prisoner advocacy group, and alleges that, despite official assurances to the contrary, privileged communications between lawyers and clients housed in the county jails have been taped, stored, “procured,” and listened to by prosecutors. The plaintiffs say that while some prosecutors have disclosed copies of recordings to defense attorneys as part of the regular evidential discovery process, other prosecutors have not, choosing instead to use their knowledge of what is in individual recordings to their “tactical advantage” in the courtroom “without admitting they obtained or listened to the recordings.” (None of the recordings provided to The Interceptappear to be connected to any of the Austin attorneys named in the suit.)   source

      Just a fair warning to fellow believers and to those that might not believe at this time:

      1) Sooner or later there is going to be a pact between Israel and The Beast (A 7-Year Deal)
      This will be a false peace for Israel and the world…

      2) Too many people have had visions and dreams about Obama: and they’re all not good. He certainly seems to be a player of what will soon take place.

      3) This current Pope. First off: there should not be a person in the world that should be addressed as, “Holy Father.” Secondly, many have had bad dreams and visions about this man. There are some that say that the Pope is the AntiChrist or The False Prophet. But it is important to look at the Holy Scriptures a little more carefully. The word AntiChrist is not just one person: although one person is referred to as the AntiChrist: and most of the time, people refer to The AntiChrist as the same Beast of Rev 13. The Beast of Rev 13 is an AntiChrist for sure, but so is The False Prophet: they are both AntiChrists. The False Prophet is probably not The Pope, but the False Messiah referred to by The Lord Jesus in John 5:43: this man will most likely come from Israel. The Pope, whether it is this current one or a future one will most likely be The Harlot that rides The Beast in Rev 17. The Harlot is not The False Prophet, nor is The Harlot The Beast, but many get confused with that. The Harlot certainly appears to be not only The Pope, but the Church of Rome during the Tribulation Period. The Harlot will be judged by God, but he will judge The Harlot by way of The Beast.

      3) The Beast. The Beast will come out of The Sea (representative of Gentile nations). The Beast is referred to as The Assyrian by Prophets Isaiah, Hosea, and Micah. Many believe Obama to be The Beast; and if he is, then it will be probably because he will be the leader of the New World Order. I’m not saying that he will be the leader of the New World Order, but that if he is The Beast, then by way of leader of New World Order could be a way.

      Many also believe that the US may be the “Babylon” of Rev 18. If this is true, then be careful not to put too much trust in the government of the US, especially the Liberals. History outside of The Holy Bible has proven over and over, that a nation gets destroyed when that nation becomes “Westside.” This current President said, “Love Wins!” when the Supreme Court voted in favor of LGBT…but “Love does not Win,” EGO wins (Edging God Out)…and that is a very bad sign!

      This is just a little warning…
