Local civil rights advocates are questioning the Metropolitan Police Department’s body-worn camera protocol. After examining body-worn camera policies outlined in Metro documents, local NAACP chapter Vice President Alex Cherup and longtime civil rights advocate Gary Peck say the body-worn camera policy needs revisiting. Peck said he doesn’t doubt Metro’s intentions to try to do what’s best for the community and law enforcement. “We just question what they’ve come up with,” said Peck. “The LVMPD body-worn camera policy is one of the most progressive policies in the nation,” the department wrote. “With that being said, we continue to evaluate best practices and how we can balance the need to be transparent to our public while also recognizing individual privacy issues.”
