Gov, John Carney signed legislation requiring police officers and certain employees of the Department of Correction and the Department of Services for Children, Youth, and Their Families to wear and use a body camera.
The bill comes with $3.6 million in funding for the cameras.
Body cameras will be used to record interactions with members of the public following the regulations that the Council on Police Training will establish.
“Here in Delaware, we look out for each other because we care for our neighbors,” said Carney. “We can do great things if we work together, and this legislation shows that we are moving forward productively. Thank you to the members of the General Assembly and the Delaware Black Caucus, Attorney General Jennings, advocates, and law enforcement for your leadership on this important piece of legislation.”
It s official. All police in Delaware will now have to wear body cameras.
Gov. John Carney on Wednesday signed the bill lawmakers passed in late June, largely thanks to police support.
The new law requires all officers to wear the cameras, along with a few related employees, such as Department of Correction probation officers and special investigators in the Department of Services for Children, Youth and Their Families.
Just before signing the bill in the conference room of the Delaware State Police Troop 2 building on Pulaski Highway in Glasgow, Carney promised the law would improve trust between law enforcement and their communities, particularly communities of color.
