body cameras

South Bend Police Chief Scott Ruszkowski has said he'll release the officer's body camera video but his spokeswoman, Ashley O'Chap, said they weren't ready to release it yet on Monday.

Critics of the bill worry that the people who interact most with police can't afford the new fees to monitor police officer behavior. But city legal staff hope the fees will incentivize people to more carefully craft public records requests because redacting confidential information takes so much time.

The South Bend Common Council's Personnel & Finance and Residential Neighborhoods committees will hold a joint meeting to further discuss the bill sometime before the council's next regular meeting Aug. 11.

South Bend Common Council Member Oliver Davis pushed for body cameras for more transparency in addressing police misconduct complaints, but he says many people who interact with police can't afford paying $50 an hour for video processing time.
