The memorandum of understanding on body cameras also still gives police the right to review footage before filing reports, which is problematic because:
1) #bodycamera footage offers a distorted low quality view of what happened,
2) human memory is mutable so officers' memories of what happened may change to accommodate what they think they see in the footage, and
3) it gives the opportunity for an officer acting in bad faith to check what misrepresentations they can get away with.
