Greetings,

By now, we all know that Body Worn Cameras (BWC) are coming to the SFPD. The POA has been part of a "working group" that was established by the San Francisco Police Commission and the department. A draft policy has now been submitted to the Police Commission. The San Francisco Public Defender’s Office, the OCC, and the ACLU were also part of this "working group", even though the ACLU did not attend a single meeting. These organizations now believe that members should not be allowed to view video footage prior to writing an incident report or providing a statement to an investigator. The POA adamantly disagrees. In order to provide the most complete, accurate, and thorough report, our members must be allowed to view any and all video footage of an incident. In an ongoing effort to get our message out to the community, the POA has produced a Public Service Announcement (PSA) stating our position.
