I’ve been saying for years that simply turning it off should be grounds for immediate suspension if not full termination.
The only time those cameras should be off is when they go to the bathroom and even then I’m fuckin iffy.
I feel like the solution is a “taking a shit” button which flags that chunk of the video. That way unless there is some suspicion that a crime happened in that chunk of time it goes unwatched.
Yes your honour, I suddenly needed to take a shit in public just when the suspect was assaulted by someone else
Body cams should also work as a time clock. If the camera isn’t on, they are off the clock and not getting paid.
And don’t have qualified immunity
This should void their qualified immunity or whatever you American kids call it these days.
Another thing of note. If you see car hoods up, take out your camera and film. The pigs will pop their hood to block their dashcams.
