Police officers in Suffolk County will soon have to wear body cameras in the next phase of the Police Reform and Reinvention Plan
Chantee Lans reports from Coney Island with tips for staying cool amid extreme heat.
This comes as part of a larger initiative to increase transparency and accountability in the Suffolk County police department. "Our body-worn camera program will highlight good police work where needed and ensure that everyone is treated justly and fair," Bellone said."This program will protect our officers, ensure accountability, and build upon the public trust."
Bellone said $24 million would be spent over five years to purchase the cameras and implement training. Officers will receive four hours of train on the department's policies around the body cameras and how to use them.
