``In California, any phone call going over the public network
cannot be monitored or recorded without consent of BOTH
parties.''


That law is against Federal Wiretapping Laws.
Person may be recorded if one party is aware.

Federal Laws always override state laws.

The California law is invaild. The prosecutor could appeal that
decision and claim the Federal law overwrite state law.


What about the other law?
You are support to report a crime if you overhear it or see it?
There is a conflict of laws here
