By next academic year, all Baltimore City School Police officers to wear bodycams

All Baltimore City School Police officers will wear body cameras by next academic year. At a school board meeting Tuesday night, school police officials said officers will record arrests, interviews, uses of force, and instances when officers stop cars, bicycles or people. “They provide clear documentation of our officers’ interactions. They play a crucial role in evidence collection,” Nick Smith, the director of school police systems, said at the meeting.
