14 Topeka (KS) police officers Wearing Body Cameras [MORE]
From [HERE] Some Philadelphia police officers will soon be on duty with small video cameras attached to them. The department is getting about a half-dozen "cop cams," designed to be mounted on an officer's glasses, hat or collar and capture every moment of what happens while an officer is at a scene. The cameras are the brainchild of the same company that makes the Taser, Philly.com reports.
With so many citizens more than happy to post their own arrest videos online, the cameras, called Axon Flex, could let the police show the entirety of an incident from their point of view, said Rick Smith, co-founder of Taser International. "To have your own recording is the best weapon against allegations against you," he said, according to Philly.com.
