Body-worn cameras (BWCs) have become essentially universal in policing. The benefits of a BWC program – improved transparency, accountability, safety and reduced liability – apply in corrections facilities as well.
BWC video can also be an invaluable resource in providing documentation of real-life situations to learn in a controlled training environment.
The lessons learned by police agencies can ease the transition to BWCs for correctional facilities and correctional officers.
