Depositions of children under 16 must be videotaped in criminal cases, but not police statements.

Re: statement

Florida does not require any statements or interrogations to be recorded. For the most part they are, but there is no rule, statute or other law that mandates it. If i can be of any further help do not hesitate to email me or give a call. All My Best, Joe Vredevelt 305.670.3119..
