Now the other police departments working in the city should implement this program.

The idea of police having body cameras on them is an idea whose time has come--and is long overdue.

Neighborhood images from the cameras can be requested via http://www.sec.state.ma.us/pre/preidx.htm

A good photo/motion picture editor can put together interesting images for viewing on the web.

Couldn't happen soon enough. It will protect our police force from bogus accusations.
