Carroll County commissioners accept congressional earmark to fund body-worn and in-car cameras for sheriff deputies

All Carroll County sheriff deputies will be outfitted with body-worn and in-car cameras with the aid of a $1.4 million federal grant. The Maryland Police Accountability Act of 2021 was enacted by the General Assembly to bring changes to law enforcement throughout the state. Among other requirements, it states all law enforcement agencies in Maryland must provide officers who regularly interact with members of the public as part of their official duties with a body-worn camera by 2025.
