Question

Write a body paragraph for why police should wear body cameras and a reason to support your opinion.

Answer 1

So many people like to claim events occur in a situation with a police officer that don’t actually occur, but they are trying to get the police officer in trouble. If police were to wear body cameras, they would have the proof that such events did not occur and that the assailant is lying about it. Another reason police should wear body cameras is in case there is a fugitive on the loose and they possibly see them in public, they could look back on the body camera footage to see if it’s the wanted fugitive they spotted.

Answer 2

Answer:

Police officers should wear body cameras to protect not just themselves but also civilians. If police officers regularly wore cameras the state would be able to look the at the footage if something questionable ever happened. The state would be able to see if the officer was abusing his/her powers or if they were just acting in self-defense. Then, in most cases, the person at blame would be clear. Then, civilians could get justice for the family or if the officer was just acting in self-defense they would not be punished. In conclusion, police officers should wear body cameras for everyone's safety.
