Well, That Didn't Go as Planned...

Washington, DC – Civil rights advocates demanded accountability from law enforcement agencies through the use of bodycams in the wake of the Ferguson riots.

One at a time, police departments nationwide have implemented bodycams, at considerable expense, to satisfy their critics and provide more “transparency” in law enforcement.

The result? A new report from The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights said that bodycams pose a “threat to civil rights.”

Interesting that conservatives said the same thing before.

So what I don't get is that with all the recent press about officers staging stuff they say they simply forgot to record, which seems like a great wedge, this letting the officers review the recording seems like small potatoes. Heck, I would require it. I don't expect them to have perfect memory, anymore than I expect that from any other witness/participant of an event.
