Body Worn Video
Local Policing perspective on a managed project
04/22/23 6Body worn video - Steering Gp Sept 2013
This is where we were….
• Two different cameras
• Localised approach
• Broken equipment
• Undefined approach to support– resulting in a lack of trust and confidence
in the equipment
04/22/23 7Body worn video - Steering Gp Sept 2013
Let’s just get a few more cameras…
• In reality, this meant– Too much technical change – Too much ground to cover across the
whole county – Not enough, or the right people, to do
all the doing 04/22/23 8Body worn video - Steering Gp Sept 2013
… hmmm, let’s get a project manager
• Small operational team needed some dedicated support – Provide some structure – Provide technical to business translation – Herd the cats
04/22/23 9Body worn video - Steering Gp Sept 2013
Was it worth having a project manager?
• Resilience
• Assurance
• Sounding board
• Support

The BWV project products2. Processes
• For each work package the required processes are identified, agreed and documented using working groups and work shops
• Processes are published in the policy database or via IT policy library
• eg ITIL processes
• Processes provide clear definitions of what, when and who, so that when the project is completed Business as Usual can proceed seamlessly

The BWV project products3. Collaboration & Communication
• Involve subject matter experts from every area of organisational support and operations
• Make sure all stakeholders are engaged with regularly, with no surprises • Make sure any risks and issues are addressed and managed by the senior
stakeholders– The project manager’s role is to collate and assess issues and risks but not make the
decisions
• Collaboration ensures :– That all the knowledge is at the disposal of the project – That overlaps and resource bottlenecks are surfaced and managed – That as far as possible everyone is in the picture, in a way relevant to their role – That there is group ownership, not a single hero

Immigration Enforcement use of Body Worn Video
Supt Cleave Faulkner
National Operations and AssuranceSeptember 2013
Restricted
Why we are looking to use BWV
• To increase number of successful illegal working Civil penalties and out of court settlements in favour of the Home
Office
• Reduce bureaucracy
• Obtain better evidence to prosecute persistent offenders who continue to
employ illegal workers
• Improve collating post critical incident data.
• Reduce clearly unfounded/malicious complaints.
• To capture evidence on contentious family visits
• Improve officer safety.
• Reassure the public.
• Verify training/development needs by reviewing operational footage.
Other benefits for I E
We plan to issue BWV devices to Immigration
Officers conducting enforcement visits.
Officers will record entry to premises and interviews with those encountered.
Evidence captured of illegal working will be made available to the team who pursue civil penalty
action
Plans for use of BWV
Officers currently make verbatim notes of interviews With offenders and others encountered on the visit inTheir personal notebook.
They will no longer need to do this if the BWV Contextualizes what was actually seen and said.
Officers will only need to produce a summary of theInterview and just exhibit the video in their statement
Transcription
We will pilot the use of BWV with two Immigration Enforcement teams based in Manchester and Cardiff .
A draft process will be amended in light of the result and findings of the pilot.
Findings to support a national roll out to all Immigration Enforcement teams.
WE NEED TO PROVE THE CASE AND DEMONSTRATE TANGIBLE BENEFITS
Pilot
To reduce by 50% the time taken to completeillegal working interviews.
2012 saw over 14,500 operations
Increase the number of illegal working detections
Income generate to self sustain the deployment of Body Worn Video
Business Benefits
Training on the use of BWV will be delivered to officers on group team basis with a full hands on approach
We envisage holding a 2 hour training session with officers at the various Immigration Compliance Engagement (ICE) team locations.
Training
Convincing staff to revise current practice in light of benefit and use of BWV - CULTURE
Dealing with noise contamination
Consistent national approach in evidence gathering
Challenges
• Terms of reference and project mandate complete and agreed by senior managers
• Policy and legal advice sought
• Workshops with operational staff, service providersand stakeholders held
• Initial guidance and process drafted
Work completed so far

Serving our communities, protecting them from harm
Serving our communities, protecting them from harm
West Midlands Police
Body Worn Video Camera Experiment
Rialto P.D. California
T/Insp 3908 Darren Henstock
Serving our communities, protecting them from harm
• The public’s perception of police use of force continues to be a problem.
• “Too many” incidents in which officers resort to use of force.
•Misinterpretation of contact or aggressive behaviour?
•“High number” of citizen complaints against police officers.
•True officer misbehaviour or malicious complaints?
The problem
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmThe Challenges
• Reducing use of force and complaints without changing the frequency and nature of contact with the public
• Requires third-party systematic observation that would scientifically measure both the implementation and the outcome of the practice
• Cost effectiveness
• Leadership – can we implement this research
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmCameras in Police Use
• 61% of police departments used video cameras in patrol cars in 2007. (U.S. Department of Justice 2010)
• Cameras are likely to:1. Improve accountability
2. Reduce complaints of police misconduct
3. Save thousands of dollars in court costs
4. Lower overtime costs for investigations and court appearances
5. Improve ability to collect evidence for trial
6. Increase professionalism by forcing officers to give more attention to following agency rules.
(International Association of Police Chiefs, 2004)
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmEvidence on Cameras
• Systematic review on CCTV – 44 studies show 16% reduction in crime compared to control conditions, but half accountable to car theft, not violent crime (Welsh and Farrington 2009).
• Systematic review on cameras on roads – 35 studies show 44% reduction in fatal accidents (Wilson et al. 2010).
• BWV – no formal evaluation.
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmResearch Questions
• Will wearing body-worn video cameras reduce the number of complaints against officers compared to the control group?
• Will wearing body-worn video cameras reduce the number (instances) of use of force compared to the control group?
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmResearch Design
• Random assignment of all front-line officers to shifts with or without cameras
• Taser Inc. HD cameras recording all police-public interactions for 12 months.
• Went live 13th February 2012 after two weeks of Phase 1.
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmResults - complaints
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmResults – Use of force
Serving our communities, protecting them from harmSummary
• Reduction in use of force incidents from 61 to 25.• Of the 25 use of force incidents, 17 were in control group
and 8 in the experiment.• Of the 8 use of force incidents on the experiment days, all
8 were recorded on video• Reduction in complaints from 24 to 3.• Contacts increased from the previous years – no
backfiring effect.• Survey of all officers before and during RCT shows no
significant changes in officers’ self-legitimacy

POLICE BODY WORN CAMERA:DISCLOSURE AND
IDENTIFICATION ISSUES
DISCLOSURE ISSUES
REASONABLE LINES OF ENQUIRY
• In conducting an investigation, the investigator should pursue all reasonable lines of inquiry, whether these point towards or away from the suspect- Code of Practice CPIA paragraph 3.5
• Reasonable enquiries might involve a trawl for bodyworn camera evidence (akin to CCTV trawl or ANPR trawl etc)
RETENTION
• It is important that bodyworn camera evidence is preserved for a reasonable period of time on the basis that it might become relevant material in any criminal investigation
• Criminal investigation in respect of which the officer with bodyworn camera is in attendance or another investigation
ABUSE OF PROCESS
• The criminal proceedings might be stayed for abuse of process if relevant bodyworn camera evidence is destroyed
• The burden of proof is on the defence to prove that a fair trial is not possible
• In any event, opportunities to bolster the prosecution case will be lost
RELEVANT MATERIAL
• Once bodyworn camera footage is identified as relevant to an investigation, it must be retained by the investigator (Code of Practice CPIA paragraph 5.1)
• Retention for the time periods in paragraphs 5.7- 5.10: NFA decision/ acquittal or 6 months after conviction or on the defendant’s release from custody (if later than 6 months after conviction )
• All relevant footage must be scheduled on MG6C
EVIDENTIAL FOOTAGE
• Page 16 National File Standard (part of Director’s Guidance on Charging)
• Copies of the footage must accompany the prosecution file and be served as Initial Details of the Prosecution Case (IDPC) i.e. first appearance
• Nothing is more likely to trigger an admission and a guilty plea than the inclusion of this
• Any footage that establishes the offence should be shown to the suspect in an interview
IDENTIFICATION ISSUES
PITFALLS
• Where identification is in issue (or might be in issue) in the criminal prosecution, extreme care must be taken where it is intended to show the footage to witnesses
NO KNOWN SUSPECT (1)
• The bodyworn camera footage is akin to CCTV. There will be occasions where it is appropriate to show the footage to persons (usually police officers) for the purposes of recognition
• This must be done in accordance with PACE Code D 3.34- 3.37
NO KNOWN SUSPECT (2)
• D3.34- 3.37: persons must view the footage individually; no collusion; no names should be suggested; a contemporaneous record should be made of the viewing on which the court can gauge the reliability of the recognition
• Wherever possible, avoid showing the footage to eye witnesses: the weight to be attached to any subsequent positive identification at parade will be reduced
KNOWN SUSPECT
• The footage can be shown to persons who are not non-eye witnesses for the purposes of recognition even where there is a known suspect (i.e. at stage where there is sufficient evidence to arrest a suspect). Viewing procedure must comply with D3.34- 3.37
• At known suspect stage, the footage must not be shown to eye witnesses
