Agents from Homeland Security and the Metropolitan Bureau of Investigation raided a home owned by Florida state Rep. Linda Stewart, D -District 47, and her husband in southeast Orange County.

The agents searched the home for nearly three hours on the 4900 block of Barcelona Street. News 13 has learned Stewart's daughter has been living in the home.

One person, Darrell Roby, was arrested after federal and local agents raided the home.

Roby is charged with possession of an illegal weapon. He made his first appearance in federal court Wednesday afternoon.

Prosecutors said another gun and drugs were also found in the home.

Roby has a long criminal record. He's been arrested 27 prior times and was due to report to the Department of Corrections next week for a 23-month prison sentence.

Stewart, in a live interview on News 13 at noon, said she had been trying to evict who she called "squatters" from the home.

"I am very thrilled that they have gone in and removed these squatters," said Stewart.

She explained she rented the home to four individuals. However, at the time of the raid, only two were the original renters. She said she posted an eviction notice on the home on Feb. 13, 2014. But she said they were not going to leave and they were not paying rent.

Global Security Experts, Inc. has released an alert today warning consumers against counterfeit versions of the OnGARD SMART dummy camera system that have been appearing online and in domestic markets recently. It appears that the counterfeit cameras originate from China, and are missing several defining features that are present in the actual OnGARD Home Security Products line. The OnGARD SMART Dummy Camera is manufactured to look exactly like the far more expensive cameras used to monitor expensive residences and corporate facilities.

Recently a line of counterfeit cameras attempting to imitate the OnGARD SMART Dummy camera have begun to pop up in the Global marketplace, said Jordan Frankel, founder of Global Security Experts, Inc. These counterfeits are vastly inferior to the OnGARD in both quality and construction, and are missing nearly all of the defining features that set the OnGARD apart as a premium security device.

As part of the consumer alert, the security team at Global Security Experts has released a Comparison Competitor Chart that highlights the differences between the genuine OnGARD and their counterfeit Chinese counterparts. The comparison competitor chart demonstrates that the OnGARD SMART dummy camera contains a litany of premium features, many of which are not found on counterfeit cameras, including ABS impact resistant plastic, stainless steel screws, a ultra-violet sun inhibitor, as well as a water resistant and gasket-ed design. The OnGARD SMART dummy camera also features an over-sized solar charging panel, comes standard with sun-driven rechargeable batteries, an over-sized - all angle-visible led flashing bulb, and twin rotating dummy antennas. The counterfeit cameras have none of the aforementioned features.

The counterfeit cameras are also missing the OnGARDs rust-free stainless steel battery connections and the Hide-A-Key feature, which allows users to conceal a spare house-key within the body of the OnGARD smart dummy camera.

Another thing consumers should look out for that is often a hallmark of counterfeit merchandise is a drastically reduced price, said Frankel. If you see what looks like an OnGARD, and the price seems too good to be true, it probably is. You will pay more for the genuine article, but you will be paying for quality and peace of mind.

Genuine OnGARD SMART dummy cameras retail from $39.99. For more information, visit globalsecurityexperts.com.

Global Security Experts, Inc. Issues Consumer Alert Against Counterfeit OnGARD SMART Dummy Cameras

Promising to make advanced home security easier and more accessible, Swann Security is introducing SwannSecure, a new wireless IP camera kit due in retail outlets this April.

Based in Australia, Swann has been manufacturing cameras and security devices for over 25 years. It was just last year, though, that they launched SwannLink, a peer-to-peer network designed to help consumers connect their security systems with devices like phones and tablets via the internet. The SwannSecure kit is the latest offering to fall in line with that initiative, consisting of an indoor/outdoor, Wi-Fi ready camera that you'll be able to monitor from your Android or iOS device, as well as from a separate 7-inch touchscreen interface. Each camera features a built-in microphone, as well as motion-triggered video recording.

All of that sounds great -- until you get a load of the price. The camera and touch screen together cost $379, which is more than what you'll pay for well-reviewed competitors like Piper and Dropcam Pro, as well as exciting, yet-to-be-released options like Samsung SmartCam HD and Canary.

Meet Swann's ugly duckling.

Of course, the SwannSecure camera only costs $139 if you buy it on its own. So why not just ditch the touch screen? After all, at 1024 x 600 pixels (less than half the resolution of an iPad Mini), and with no other real functionality beyond playback, it hardly seems worth the $240 it tacks onto SwannSecure's price. For consumers who already own an Android or iOS device capable of viewing their live feeds and recorded footage, it'd be a near-complete redundancy.

Unfortunately, you don't have a choice. The touch screen is mandatory -- you can't use these cameras without it.

Pricing qualms aside, SwannSecure cameras (model NVW-470) seem to fall short when it comes to image quality, as well. The new cameras will feature a 1MP CMOS sensor, an IR cut filter for night vision, a glass lens, and a resolution of 720p. That resolution is good enough to bear the HD label, but not as impressive as Piper or Dropcam Pro, both of which offer resolutions of 1080p. SwannSecure also gets bested when it comes to viewing angle, with a 65 degree lens that falls short of the Dropcam Pro's 130 degrees, and shorter still of Piper's 180 degrees.

Another factor separating the three is the cost of storing and viewing recorded video, and here's where SwannSecure might look tempting to the truly fee-averse. SwannSecure cameras will save video to a mini SD card that you'll pay nothing to access (storage size starts at 8 GB -- you can upgrade as high as 64 GB). Dropcam will let you view your live feed for free, but you'll need to pay a monthly fee in order to save continuous video to the cloud for DVR-style viewing at a later date. Piper will automatically record 25-second video snippets whenever it detects something amiss, and you'll be able to play those back for free in addition to viewing the live feed. Like Dropcam, though, Piper will soon offer a fee-based continuous storage option for longer spans of video coverage.

This local storage strategy might help explain the SwannSecure's lower resolution, as Swann is likely aiming for the sweet spot: high enough to claim HD-quality, but low enough that you'll be able to fit plenty of footage on that micro SD card. It's a strategy that we're also seeing from Samsung with the newly announced SmartCam HD, due out in March.

With motion detection and video playback, Swann's cameras aren't quite as comprehensive as an option like Piper or Canary, which both track environmental factors like temperature, humidity, and noise levels in addition to recording video. They also won't integrate into a larger network of motion detectors, open/close sensors, and other security peripherals. For a camera-based system like that, you'll want to look into iSmartAlarm, Oplink Security, or Viper Home.
