About
Stephen Lutes, a JPMorgan Chase regional security specialist, described the camera system at a Pembroke Pines drive-up ATM and the bank's storage of its surveillance footage. He explained that separate cameras captured facial images and vehicles, and that the footage was stored on a bank DVR in a locked, alarmed technology room.
Lutes authenticated State's Exhibit 143 as an unaltered surveillance video from July 18, 2014. The court admitted the video and State's Exhibits 38 through 44, still images taken from it, without objection. The video was later shown in open court without audio.
On cross-examination, Lutes acknowledged that the footage could not identify whether the apparent transaction was a deposit or withdrawal, show where the vehicle had been immediately before or after the recorded interval, or confirm whether other camera coverage existed at the location. He said the bank's subpoena compliance unit supplied the video and photographs and that he had not independently investigated the transaction.
