That sounds more like a police problem than a camera issue. My sister is married to an often deployed Marine and lives out in the desert around 29 Palms. They bought a security camera system from Costco. She has it streaming 24/7 on a monitor. It gives her the ability to look around her house from the safety of her living room when something goes bump in the night. (or day for that matter)
