bodycam footage
Wearable camera evidence
Bodycam footage is video recorded by a small camera worn on a police officer's uniform, typically on the chest.
Such recordings serve as evidence in investigations and legal proceedings, and their release often becomes central to public debates about police conduct: The bodycam footage contradicted the official account of the shooting.
