In today’s episode, Susan and Glenn focus on police body-worn cameras. They discuss the many perceived benefits of their use for both civilians and law enforcement officers, as well as the current challenges of measuring the effectiveness of this technology. Staff Analyst Allison Kobzowicz joins us to speak on her experience creating and interpreting a survey on body-worn camera use and cost within Pennsylvania police departments. The content of this episode is based on Body-Worn Camera Footage Outcomes for Law Enforcement Officers and Civilians released in December of 2024.
