BBC News - Metropolitan Police officers start wearing body cameras
a very sensible decision, maybe this will improve behaviour on both sides of the law.
Assuming of course its totally automated and can't be fiddled. But from the text it sounds like the officers control the retention.
BBC News - Metropolitan Police officers start wearing body cameras
Met Police officers are to start wearing cameras on their uniforms as part of plans to boost transparency and accelerate convictions.
The cameras are designed to capture evidence at crime scenes.
A trial of the cameras will see 500 distributed to officers across 10 London boroughs. Firearm officers will also use them in their training.
The pilot scheme comes as the force was criticised following the death of Mark Duggan at the hands of armed officers.
