Can recordings from my scanner be used as evidence for Child Protection Services ?

Question

The scanner being programmed with baby monitor frequencies and with an outdoor beam antenna to strengthen and track the signal.

Answer 1

Sure.  Why not?  Anything that can identify who is doing the harm, who is receiving the harm, and what is happening can work just fine.  Of course, an easier solution would be to just have a tape recorder...

Answer 2

I guess so - it what you recorded was bad enough.  

Answer 3

Oh Grandma......you really should find another hobby. I am all for children rights and ending child abuse is one of my personal crusades but this is a bit much. Sorry.
