Following the news that Michael Jackson has been videoed while he discussed the recent child abuse allegations with his attorney on the way to be officially arrested, now police officials in Santa Barbara say they reckon they too have been bugged by over-keen media looking out for some Jacko gossip.
The police department say several wireless microphones were discovered outside the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department headquarters on 20 Nov, the day of Jackson's arrest. The microphones were focused on an area where employees sit during their breaks - presumably hoping to pick up some internal gossip on the case.
The departments Sgt Chris Pappas told reporters: "Several microphones were observed by our personnel, in an outside area generally frequented by employees during their break times. Once we were made aware of them, we removed them."
