Associated Press: "ICE rejects suggestion that its officers wear body cameras that automatically activate"

 Rebecca Santana for the Associated Press reports that federal immigration officials need to ensure that body cameras worn by officers are uniformly activated when needed, a government report released [yesterday] said . . . . The agency rejected the recommendation, saying that using cameras that automatically activate when an officer pulls their weapon or activates a car siren could risk privacy concerns."

ICE officers have been involved in numerous incidents fired weapons during enforcement operations but officers were not wearing body cameras.
