"Under the body camera language as we passed today, it would not be under FOIA," Pope said.
Under the current language of the bill, one would be allowed to obtain the body camera video if he/she is the subject in the video, criminal defendant in a pending criminal case, a person contemplating to bring civil action, a person whose property was damaged or seized on video, or the parent, guardian, or attorney of the defendant.
The bill states: "data recorded by a body-worn camera is not a public record subject to disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act." |

And all the government has to do is to say, "You aren't on the video.", and whether or not your visage appears, how will anyone know? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
