PRINCETON, N.J. — Princeton police and other law enforcement departments in New Jersey are eligible for grants to buy body cameras for their officers through a program the state attorney general announced Tuesday.
Using funds from criminal forfeiture, the state will make $2.5 million available to all 21 counties in unequal amounts based on their population.
Acting Mercer County Prosecutor Angelo J. Onofri said departments would have to submit a letter of interest that they want a grant. Cameras cost anywhere from $800 to $1,200 each.
