West Coast Metropolitan Transportation Authority

"Just wanted to let you and Micro Technology Services know that the SR- 71BPCASE Surveillance System has been a great working tool and a major asset to our Metropolitan Transportation Authority Security Department. ..... MTA is the largest Transportation in Agency in California, with its fair share of crime. "

"On a recent case of internal theft, Our local PD and the MTA Security combined both efforts to capture an employee.  The suspect a 19 year veteran Bus Operator suspected of embezzlement of MTA Public Funds and theft of MTA Fare Media. "

" We were able to install a bullet pinhole camera on board a MTA bus and monitor the suspects actions and transactions, with the use of the 900MHz Wireless Transmitter and SR-71 Surveillance System. "

" Without this system we would have never been able to observe the suspects transactions, the fact that the bus operator would conduct his thefts and /or sales of fare media with his buyer while on the bus traveling on its route, generally empty of passengers made this investigation extremely difficult. "

" We believe this suspect had been in business for himself for at least two years, conducting transactions on a daily basis, because he felt comfortable and sure no one would ever see his acts of theft since he and the suspect were alone and in a moving vehicle. "

" When the suspect was arrested he was confident there was no evidence against him.  It was a major shock and definite change of his expression when he observed the video of himself, capturing his crime picture perfect. "
