N.Y. Senator Pushes For Cameras On Cop Handguns

<< < (3/3)

SomeKid:
Bad idea, for a host of reasons. Just to name one, what if they leave the guns holstered, and simply beat the guy?

Better idea: On their shoulder epulets I see a lot of local cops put their microphone for the radio. On the opposite side, should be an audio and video recording one. I would advise mounting it in such a way that it records multiple angles, as well as audio. Have it always on, and always transmitting to be recorded. No off switch, except shift sign off. If a LEO is ever found to have tampered with it to cause it not to be on during his shift, it is assumed the cop is lying and is trying to cover for himself, and is fired as well.

Because they are to go on the shoulder, and not the end of a gun, they probably won't be nearly as expensive, or easy to break. Granted, the added tech I would add will still keep the price high, for a one time cost that will work for years, I think it would be a good buy.

"Why don't we put cameras on politicians?"

And tamper proof recording devices.
