>Like, it always comes across as they feel that their entire case is lost if they can only prove something 5 different ways instead of 6. There are a lot of crimes these days without a complainant. The sale and consumption of illegal drugs for instance. Surveillance can be very important in discovering the crime in the first place. It's like asking someone to help you with your diet and then becoming upset when they invade your privacy by looking in your kitchen cupboards and fridge. We have in a sense brought this on ourselves by passing laws intended to protect us from ourselves.
