Police Body Camera
We need unbiased, uncompromised and transparent representation of data from our Police Departments. Third party ownership of the data from cameras, minimized controls of the devices on/off switch and transparency to governing bodies and public.
Why is this important?
The petition is about providing communities with the needed information to restore trust with PDs and provide reliable evidence to ensure due process for ALL suspects related to Probable cause. The data from the body cameras should be maintained by a third party (not PDs), the Police should have VERY MINIMAL controls to the functions of the device (on/switch), and the data needs to be transparent to the public and MUST be transparent to Governing bodies as evidence.
This policy change should assure probable cause used by PDs, ensuring the public and governing bodies have a proper representation of encounters with Police, resulting in restored trust between the public and public servants and their ability to maintain peace for our great nation.
