The BRPD needs to require all officers to wear body cameras and this would stop.
They also need to design more ergonomic body cameras.
When an officer is offered employment with the city they have to sign a notice stating wearing a camera is apart of their employment,
If the camera is turned off by the officer or not worn the officer should be terminated immediately.
The videos should be available online within 24 hrs after an incident and on the citation a code should be available to access the video. If any citizen request any video the dept should have a system in place to disclose that video to the citizen no later than 24 hours after the request. If the video is not disclosed the dept which includes the chief, supervisors, and officers should be held liable criminally of no less than 30 days in jail and no more than 6 months in jail along with personal fines paid to the city and citizen requesting the video.
Having everything on video protects the officer, city, and citizens.

That's all good and well until BRPD requests $15 million dollars for 100 GoPro cameras and people shut it down because of that. They will find a way to make it not happen.
Police unions are pretty powerful, and if they don't want something to happen, it probably won't.

Why not hire a Prosecutor, Judge and ACLU monitor to ride with and watch every police officer every shift? Because that idea is just as implementable as yours. How in the hell do you think your idea gets funded? Who pays for the techs to download and maintain all that data? Who runs and manages that database? Who handles all the privacy lawsuits from people accessing footage of your interactions with an officer in your home when they are there on a complaint? As I have said before, Holder and Obama start talking cameras and people who can't think on their own parrot the idea. No one bothers to critically think beyond the basic concept to practical implementation.

Cops all over the country have already discovered that they can just turn off the camera or delete the evidence and then say it was turned off and be completely justified.
The reason?
HIPPA. They can turn the camera off if they think there may be a "medical situation" involved. There was a veteran who was shot in his home a few days ago and people were trying to figure out what happened but they said the cop's camera was off because he was responding to a call where somebody was injured.
