Katrina Pierson - Privacy vs. Safety After Boston Bombings

Footage from surveillance cameras along the Boston Marathon route gave the FBI early clues about the bombing suspects.

"It goes back to the Constitution, It was part and parcel of the Fourth Amendment right to be free of unreasonable searches and seizures. We've always expressed a strong constitutional preference for privacy, for not giving the government unbridled authority, even to protect us."
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., a member of the House Intelligence Committee
