It has been exactly one year since the death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis police officer.
The now-former officer has been convicted on murder and manslaughter charges and is scheduled to be sentenced next month.
Maryland has passed landmark police reform legislation and a handful of other states have followed suit.
A key component of Maryland’s police reform package requires all officers in the state to wear body cameras by 2025. While some jurisdictions have already done so, Howard and Carroll counties are among the jurisdictions that have decided to wait until the statutory deadline to implement the policy.
