The Open Rights Group (ORG) has posted an article arguing the case against the police use of body-worn video cameras. The article cites a recent BBC investigation involving comments made by Thames Valley Police officers concerning a semi-naked woman who had suffered a seizure. The article reports that police officers had later made degrading comments about having sex with the woman.
ORG highlights that while body-worn video cameras were intended to make the police more accountable, allegations of irresponsible use are mounting.
