Body Cameras

An officer with the Los Angeles Police Department was arrested and charged Thursday with allegedly fondling a dead woman, after a random check of body camera footage revealed an incident that happened after he thought the camera had been turned off.

Jonathan Oddi, 42, is facing multiple charges, including five counts of attempted second-degree murder on a law enforcement officer.

The Patrolmen's Benevolent Association says that the forced release of video from police body cameras violates officers' rights. 

Sixty-six of the 964 people killed were unarmed.

Police departments across the country could benefit from a thorough examination of footage the Las Vegas police have yet to release.

"Unrestricted footage review places civil rights at risk and undermines the goals of transparency and accountability."

Gun camera manufacturers say they provide unobstructed views of officer-involved shootings and don't come with data storage costs

Bodycam footage shows how officers responded at the chaotic scene.

Police claimed Miguel Richards pointed a toy gun at them.

Departments throughout the U.S. are struggling with the high costs of cameras and video storage, often determining that funding can't be found.

Body cameras could become a secretive law enforcement tool with worrying privacy implications.

The move comes six months after the death of a black man in police custody sparked riots.

If an officer is to serve as an eyewitness, will his memory be untainted if he views the footage?

Researchers published the first controlled experiment to ask whether cameras have an effect on use of force and complaints against police.
