There have been articles in the news about Carmen Segarra, a former Federal Reserve Bank examiner. She was fired by the FRB she claims because she refused to alter her reported findings.

She is suing the FRB and claims she has voice recordings of her conversations that support her case.

Is it legal to secretly record conversations with colleagues?

Is it legal to secretly record conversations with bank employees?

Is it legal to take copies of records of your work and keep them after leaving your employment?

@gollum,
All depends on the state laws and prior agreements.

@gollum,
The recordings might not be permissible in court, but in the court of public opinion, they are certainly admissible. The FRB reports to politicians who might not be happy to hear what is in those recordings, especially if the officials in them lied expecting never to be caught.

@engineer,
engineer-

Thank you.

I guessed that possibly the act of recording the conversation might be illegal. I'm not sure if it might depend on whether the conversation is with another examiner or with a Goldman Sachs employee.
