“The vast majority of times I viewed body camera footage is based on allegations from a defense attorney about what a cop did,” said David DeVillers, former U.S. attorney for the Southern District of Ohio. “And I would say 95% of the time it absolves the cop of wrongdoing.”
Therein lies the problem. Body cameras help the cops 95% of the time, whereas no body cameras work 100% of the time to avoid accountability. The 5% that show cops committing crimes is the issue.
