In Today’s Tip, Gordon Graham emphasizes that body-worn camera footage offers only a partial view of events for law enforcement officers.
While this technology captures important moments, it doesn’t provide the full context of incidents, such as preceding actions or sensory cues like smells. Agencies often complement footage with detailed briefings and written reports to provide comprehensive context.
This helps in creating a fuller understanding for the public and legal authorities. Officers are encouraged to document thoroughly and use footage as a supplemental tool to narrate the complete story.
