Over 80% of Minnesota police chiefs say they support the use of body-worn cameras by police officers, according to a recent survey conducted by the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association. Red Wing Police Department uses the technology. However, the Goodhue County Sheriffâs Office doesnât due to financial challenges. âMore agencies, large and small, are deploying body-worn cameras, or considering their deployment, to gather crucial evidence and enhance transparency with their communities,â said MCPA Executive Director Jeff Potts in a news release. Of the 214 police chiefs who responded to the survey, 100 said their departments are using the technology. Gordon Rohr, newly appointed Red Wing police chief, said the department started employing Axon body cameras during the fall of 2020 after testing out three options. All sworn officers are equipped with cameras.
