"Police departments that are considering a program involving body-worn cameras would be well-advised to closely follow the federal implementation guidelines," suggests Michael D. White, professor in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at ASU and associate director of ASU's Center for Violence Prevention and Community Safety, who led the study.

"The guidelines offer a road map to successfully plan and implement programs, and increase the likelihood of achieving positive results," White adds. Such results can include reductions in complaints by citizens and in use of force, as well as smoother and faster processing of criminal cases.
