New York City police have been working with researchers to collect public feedback on their policy to govern the use of the technology.

The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights updated its "scorecard" for how cities manage police body cameras, and found that many still aren't making the grade.

Rep. Niraj Antani's legislation would classify all police body camera footage as a public record, but still restrict its release in a variety of scenarios.

Gov. Pat McCrory approved a bill to keep all police video in the state secret, unless a judge steps in and gets involved.

A new bill would make all kinds of law enforcement video exempt from disclosure, but supporters charge that it could resolve some legal conundrums in the state.
