ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. All Bernalillo County Sheriff’s deputies now have on-body cameras, but the sheriff is calling them “digital evidence management systems.”
Friday afternoon Sheriff Manuel Gonzales unveiled the device his department has purchased for all 310 deputies.
The BodyWorn camera by Utility, Inc., looks like a smart phone slipped into a hidden pocket on a deputy’s chest, but a company representative said the device is locked into its functions and cannot be used to make calls.
