dc.descriptionThis research project consisted of three major components: an informal survey of 500 law enforcement agencies nationwide; interviews with police executives; and a conference in which police chiefs and other experts from across the country gathered to discuss the use of body-worn cameras. The first chapter discusses the perceived benefts of deploying body-worn cameras, particularly how law enforcement agencies have used the cameras to resolve complaints and prevent spurious complaints, to enhance transparency and offcer accountability, to identify and address structural problems within the department, and to provide an important new type of evidence for criminal and internal administrative investigations. The second chapter discusses the larger policy concerns that agencies must consider when implementing body-worn cameras, including privacy implications, the effect cameras have on community relationships and community policing, offcers’ concerns, the expectations cameras create, and financial costs. The third chapter presents policy recommendations, which reflect promising practices and lessons.en_US
