violations acutely
affect
a
community's
trust
in
the
legitimacy
of
law
enforcement operations. BPD's
sensitivity
to
criticism
and
recording
of
their
activity
is
ultimately
both
a
symptom
and
a
cause
of
mutual
mistrust
with
the
community
.
there
is
emerging
evidence
that
video
recording
can
be
a
valuable
tool
to
reduce
use
of
force
incidents
and
complaints
,
and
protect
the
rights
of
both
community
members
and
officers.
to
create
an
atmosphere
of
mutual
respect
and
accountability officers
will
need
to
demonstrate
the
ability
to
work
within
the

of
the
first

from
the
department
of
justice
report
on
the
baltimore
police
department
since
then
a
hilarious
and
infuriating
video
of
a
cop
planting
evidence
when
he
thought
his
body
camera
was
turned
off
(
even
though
it
wasn't
)
has
surfaced.
while
we
push
for
body
cameras,
time
and
time
again
we
find
out
that
cameras
have
been
turned
off
in
cases
of
uses
of
force
,
especially
police
shootings
.
looks
like
the
cop
in
baltimore
that
got
caught
planting
evidence
with
his
own
body
camera
was
too
stupid
to
realize
what
position
is
off
for
the
power
switch
.
should
someone
that
stupid
be
allowed
to
carry
a
gun
on
the
job
?
