The Worthington Division of Police is expected to join multiple police agencies around central Ohio that are using body-worn cameras after an appropriation by Worthington City Council.
“We’ve had an extensive amount of time spent . in which the council was educated on what body cameras were about, how law enforcement uses them, what are the values, what are the trends and what are the safeguards that have to be in place,” council President Bonnie Michael said. “And after having a thorough discussion, I think the council felt comfortable enough to go forward with the appropriation.”
