HB 386 (Body Cameras for Law Enforcement Officers)

Libertas Institute supports this bill.

This bill would set minimum policy guidelines for the use of body cameras by police officers.

Libertas Institute supports this bill. In coalition with our civil liberty partner organizations we spent hundreds of man hours over the past year developing this policy as a way to address the various use cases of the cameras, the resulting video, and accountability for violation of the law. With the proliferation of these devices and their privacy implications and abuse potential, this bill is very much needed.
