Could body cameras have helped sort out the truth . I think it could have been significant. Reporter it shows footage of his walk around city hall. He plans to buy 30 cameras for a Pilot Program. I believe that the national clamor where everybodys saying body cameras body cameras must also include prisons and jail. Reporter hes been asking for cameras during city budget talks for the past two years. The public defender believes they would be a good first step. But have limitations. One thing that the body cameras wont overcome is what they call the blue line of silence. And what this does is creates a wall.

He hopes to have it operating within three months. In the newsroom carolyn tyler, abc 7 news. Thank you.

Apple has scrapped some finished watches after learning the part breaks down over time. The company has not reported or commented, i should say, on this report.
