Police Departments Are Buying Body Cams, and Officers Don’t Have to Tell You When They’re Recording
From the article:
In Celina, Texas, dash-cam footage taken from the hood of a police cruiser seems to show an arrest gone horribly wrong. The officer orders the suspect to “put your hands behind your back,” then suddenly seems to tackle him and wrestle him to the ground face down.
The officer’s reaction escalates for no obvious reason, at least from the dash cam perspective.
The footage taken from the tiny body camera the officer was wearing that day tells an entirely different story.
