CMPD Body Cameras and the City

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The City of Charlotte approved CMPD’s use of $250K to get body cameras for their service calls. They’ll be used in addition to the tradition “dash cam” in the patrol car. So what does this mean for the people of Charlotte?

The body cameras could be launched as early as this Summer.

WCCB political contributor, Mary C. Curtis is weighing the move and how it’ll play into the privacy versus public record debate.
