Recommendations

The Chief, Criminal Investigation, should reemphasize body-worn camera policies and procedures to its special agents, specifically highlighting that videos should be timely uploaded into the cloud-based storage platform and reviewed, including those marked for deletion. Also, special agents should be reminded of following pre-operation plans to not deactivate cameras prematurely and maintaining the required documentation certifying completion of training.
