When and where will San Jose police mount cameras on officers heads (AP)?
SAN JOSE, Calif. – Grainy cell phone images are often used against cops accused of using excessive violence. Now, officers are being armed with their own cameras. The so-called head cameras are the latest technology to come from TASER International, Inc., makers of the stun guns popular with law enforcement. “It’s like the helmet cam you’ve seen on X Games,” said San Jose police officer William Pender, who demonstrated the camera on a recent afternoon.
