Established under lawful police administrative authority subject to collective bargaining, state law and professional standards; legal-review and technical-feasibility gates come first.
The problem
Body cameras were supposed to build trust — but footage reviews stay inside the department, and residents rarely see what the video taught anyone. Without independent eyes, the cameras feel like a promise half kept.
The plan
An independent body-camera learning ombudsperson reviews footage not to punish but to learn — finding patterns, recommending better tactics, and reporting publicly on what the cameras reveal.
Legal review and technical feasibility work come first, protecting both officer rights under collective bargaining and resident privacy under state law.
