De-escalation
Visible recording reduces the likelihood of confrontation escalating.
Overview
Body Cameras
Body cameras change behaviour on both sides of an encounter. Their presence tends to reduce confrontation, and their footage resolves disputes that would otherwise turn into contested accounts.
Deployment is governed by policy: when cameras record, how footage is stored, who may access it, and how long it is retained. Officers are trained on that policy before cameras are issued.
