Current Events > ICE/Border Patrol given orders to stop using body cameras

(+) Yeah! (+)

U.S. Border Patrol agents will stop using body cameras immediately in all field operations following social media posts that revealed how to identify Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, NewsNation reported on Saturday.
All U.S. Border Patrol Agents will cease the use of body-worn cameras (BWC) in all operational environments, reads a statement to Border Patrol received by NewsNation.

The directive follows notification regarding a potential security risk, the statement said. Pending completion of investigation and risk mitigation, all Agents will stand down the use of their BWCs [body worn cameras] until further notice. Additional guidance and information will be disseminated as it is received, the statement added.

Make sure you have your phone cameras ready at all times, because without that deterrent, we are about to see an uptick in police brutality.

Being ordered to commit a crime isnt a defense for either the crime nor does it free you from the laws requiring you to wear a running bodycam.

So yes, bad shit is going to happen. Which is why we got rid of ICE the first time and why well undoubtedly have to do so again. Its full of our worst people and has to go away.

LMFAO

There inevitably will be an American version of the Nuremberg trials, and every single member of ICE needs to be tried when it happens.

How long before all law enforcement officers can turn off their cameras?

Trump said months and months ago that the Police should not be able to be tried for crimes. So... uhh....

Gotta hide that brutality

Only The Hill is covering it?

They will try the same thing the caught nazis did and say "I was just following orders "

I am looking at it and it sounds as though it is for BP, Border Patrol, for now.

Soon the doge-bag - just pronounce 'doge' like a Mexican term - will close the agency that manages body worn cameras to save our tax money.

As Trump has been told repeatedly by the courts last week, he doesnt get to just issue Executive Orders when they contradict actual law.

This will be immediately appealed successfully.

Will also be blocked for the same reason.
