    I'm sure the officer got an earful back at the station.

    Gotta wonder if there's a way we could lock gun functionality to body cams being turned on. Cam isn't on, you no get to shoot.

    While I'm sure its possible, it would just be easier to keep the fucking body cam on.

    Also, if the firearm locks up because of a connection issue between the camera and firearm and a cop dies over it, that will be the end of that.

    It's 100% possible. There are many difference wireless gun locking devices that get talked about a lot. Problem is while they may prevent usage when not wanted there will always be an increased chance of preventing usage when needed and for people planning to defend themselves that's a non starter even if the odds are pretty low

    Connect it to the holster so that the camera is on every time the gun is drawn.

    That's actually not a bad idea.

    I would give that six months before bad cops have a work around to keep it off and claim they have no idea why it didn't function correctly during a fatal shooting.

    Yea seems easy enough, add a light sensor to the holster that is completed cover while the gun is in holster, if the sensor picks up light, the gun is drawn, the camera is triggered, this doesn't affect any operating conditions as far as the fire arm is concerned but we still get 100% cam coverage when officers draw their weapons.

    Won't happen though.

    Except in a lot of cases, you need the context from before the gun is drawn to make an accurate assessment of the situation. Besides storage/archiving issues, having the cams just be default on 100% of the officer's shift is the only real solution.

    Who needs context when saying "I'm gonna kill this motherfucker" doesn't get you convicted?

    I get that they were just struggling, but what about this situation allows the officer to draw a gun and execute a man that is not close enough to be a threat to him any longer? Just wondering what rules of engagement are against citizens? Are they different all around the country state by state? Or are there standard federal guidelines regarding the use of lethal force? (I am guessing not)

    Is it because that guy grabbed the officers retractable baton(i think that is what he dropped when he fell)? It just doesn't seem like an appropriate use of deadly force to me unless your life is actually threatened, and this video does not make a case for that IMO.

    Its already known that cams record 30 seconds prior, but no sound.

    No sound seems dumb tbh. 30 sec seems reasonable, though I'd be more comfortable with a higher time.

    Depends on the technology too, there's a variety of different body cams from different companies.

    A lot of the problem as gone over previously is storage and archiving. We should just contract google maps to use their satellite views more

  19. #159

    I don't quite understand the storage issue.

    Certainly you wouldn't archive footage unless an incident of some significance occurred that day.

    ie. making an arrest

  20. #160

    Or, ya know, shooting someone.
