Most people asked want police to wear body cameras

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Almost all the Wisconsin residents polled by a police advocacy group say they want officers to wear body cameras, although few departments use them. Wisconsin Public Radio reports that 94 percent of 400 respondents to the Wisconsin Professional Police Association’s 2018 phone survey were in favor of requiring law enforcement officers to wear body cameras. Axon, a company that manufactures the devices, told the association that about 60 agencies use body cameras.
