BWC: Therapeutic Implementation

103 Words1 Page

The implementation of BWC will require all NYPD officers to have BWC for every major operation. However, it is not simple to get officers to wear BWC at the first try. This is why there should be a pilot project that will test and identify issues and pin point the failures and issues. The issues in the piloting project must be closely examined and fixed to ensure that when fully implementing BWC it is done correctly and it decrease the chance of the issue from occurring again. This will bring out the realities and the procedures that are related to the actual

    This system was created by Barack Obama, due to all the policing violations around the country going on, similar to the Mike Brown case in Ferguson. This policy was created to strength community policing and the trust between police officers and the community. This system created a few listening sessions across the country to receive a variety of recommendations. This task incorporated 6 pillars from a wider perspective to identify the best practices, and recommendations on how policing practices can promote effective crime reduction while building public trust. The 6 pillars are (1) Building trust and legitimacy, (2) Policy and oversight, (3) Technological and social media, (4) Community policing and crime reduction, (5) training and education, (6) Officer wellness and safety.

    The incidents I chose that have shown the most criminal justice malfeasance is the Eric Garner incident in New York and the killing of Justine Damond. All five contextual themes can be seen in this case and the administrative concepts that could have prevented these situations can be seen as well. I will go over these cases one at a time to not be confusing to the reader. The first case I will discuss is the case of Eric Garner and the incident that ultimately led to his death. “Eric Garner was lumbering along a sidewalk on Staten Island on a July day when an unmarked police car pulled up.

    Many agencies came together in order to pinpoint a solution to accommodate both the safety of law enforcement officers, and the citizens of the community. The “militarization” of the police force in Ferguson, and the excessive use of force claims by the public in these incidents, contributed to the solution of law enforcement officers wearing body cameras while on duty. Today, most if not all law enforcement agencies require their officers to sport body cameras, documenting both the citizen and officers every

    The powerful words “trust, but verify” were once said by former United States President Ronald Reagan. These words need to be used for all situations and people. In order for there to be trust and a way to verify what happens between the police officers and citizens, police body cameras need to be worn. Technology is advanced as it has ever been and there is now a way for police officers to wear a camera right on their uniform. This technology must be taken advantage of for the benefits it provides to police officers and citizens.

    The NYPD are not extinguishing crime, they are merely biding their time as authority figures, as New York’s crime rate remains stagnant. The Stop-and-Frisk Law is widely based on the foundation of assumptions and anonymous tip-offs (“Terry...Transcript)."). This matter leaves stop-and-frisk procedures vulnerable to exploitation and unreasonable suspicion. Without any solid evidence to function off of, the NYPD are deluded with the illusion that they are taking measures to stop

    With all the advancements in technology, there has been a public demand for law enforcement to wear body cameras.   Some police administrators, civil rights groups, politicians, and victims family have requested law enforcement mandate policy and force officers to wear body cameras in an attempt to increase accountability and transparency (Bradner, 2015; Fieldstadt, 2014; King and Disis, 2015; Morgan, 2015).   There are positive and negative aspects to law enforcement wearing body cameras.   In December 2014, President Obama created a task force to study twenty-first century policing, and proposed investing $75 million into purchasing 50,000 body cameras for law enforcement in the United States (Office of the White House Press Secretary, 2015).   Body cameras are an essential part of our modern day policing.

  • Media Influence On Law Enforcement

    Although everyone loved police officers on September 12, 2001 (McLaughlin), times have changed and the entire criminal justice system as a whole has adjusted. Public policy making and strategies are just the tip of the iceberg for these changes (Dowler). Of 600 polled law enforcement agencies by the International Association of Chiefs of Police's Center for Social Media findings, 92% percent use some form of social media (90% use Facebook, 50% use Twitter, and 37% use YouTube). Ironically, although media caused the negative bias and false expectations, social media is viewed as effective by 2/3 of the departments in the poll in improving community relations, not to mention assisting in investigations (qtd. in Siner). The implementation of dash cameras as well as body cameras by more and more departments can help in solving crimes as well as put the community more at ease because everything is being recorded

Law enforcement officers are required to perform duties that set them apart from the majority of the population. In a recent article addressing repeated legal test failures by Baltimore Police academy recruits Sgt Josh Rosenblatt stated “We’re giving them a badge and a gun tomorrow, the right to take someone’s liberty, ultimately the right to take someone’s life if it calls for it, and they have not demonstrated they can meet basic constitutional and legal standards” (Rector).

    Arizona State University 's Center for Violence Prevention and Community Safety on body camera studies, Professor Michael D. White states “Body-worn cameras (BWCs) are perhaps the most debated topic in policing today. Advocates and critics have made numerous claims about the impact and consequences of the technology, but most of these claims are untested. BWCs have the potential to completely transform police-citizen encounters, and in the wake of the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, adoption of the technology is likely to be exponential. This transformation, in the virtual absence of empirical evidence on BWCs, is profoundly troubling.” So although there are many pros and cons to body worn cameras by police officers, the benefits surely outweigh the negatives and more studies are being conducted to prove

    Research shows that 95% of all large police departments have BWC programs in their departments. The extension of BWC programs are due pushed by the American Civil Liberties Union, Campaign Zero, and Black Lives Matter movement (BLM) to improve policing in the country. The reason for an increase in the use of BWC in departments is due to officer involved shootings and incidents in which bystanders recorded events and later posted the videos on social media. A theory on the effects of body cameras states that police officers and civilians behave differently on when being recorded than they would off film. This theory suggests that when a person is being watched, crime reduces, honesty is encouraged, and work productivity is increased.
