From The Denver Post:  When Denver Police Department’s leaders talk about their plans to field 800 body cameras within the force, they repeatedly talk about the credibility and transparency the cameras will bring.

Yet, questions loom about how the footage will be used, including whether videos only will be released when it benefits the department while damning videos never see the light of day.

Others are concerned about privacy issues of those caught on camera.

And there are some who so distrust the department’s officers that they are convinced bad cops will find ways to avoid recording public interaction.

Those are important questions, critics say.

Denise Maes, public policy director for the ACLU-Colorado, said her organization supports the body camera program because it can improve police accountability and oversight.

“However, the cameras can only be effective if good and clear policies are in effect,” she said.
