my brother Josh died last week, on the day before Thanksgiving. he was fifty years old. for byzantine family abuse & trauma reasons we were not close, but as you can see, there was a time when he was my favorite person and i was his.

They will be used to clear ICE officers, not to protect the people they are aimed at.
screenshot of text from linked article. it reads "Early research results do suggest that body cameras can make a difference. In a 2014 study published in the Journal of Quantitative Criminology, a year-long randomized controlled trial demonstrated that “officers wearing the cameras had 87.5 percent fewer incidents of use of force and 59 percent fewer complaints than officers not wearing the cameras.” But fewer complaints and use-of-force reductions are somewhat limited metrics: The public’s understanding of excessive force isn’t always in alignment with law enforcement conceptions, and logging fewer complaints doesn’t necessarily mean that the problems that might have prompted them have been resolved. Body cameras only work (or work best) for the clients the developers have in mind— the police, who don’t always want what the public wants. Law enforcement’s embrace of body-worn technology is at odds with that of a public demanding stiffer standards and penalties for police abuse. Law enforcement agencies want to use body cameras and video recordings to protect officers, whether it’s by modifying their behavior or reducing complaints, or, when the need arises, to exonerate them."
