SEATTLE, Wash. (Metro) -- The Washington State Legislature will be asked to change state law that will allow police departments to review video captured by red-light cameras for the purpose of solving murders.
The Seattle Police Department and King County prosecutors will request that lawmakers change the statute that currently prohibits any use of red-light cameras other than for the purpose of catching motorists who run stop lights.
Seattle Police Sergeant Sean Whitcomb says if red-light cameras record footage of suspect vehicles, it will provide valuable information to murder investigations.
