The I-Team found Washington, D.C.’s Metropolitan Police Department along with Montgomery and Fairfax counties, deployed their cameras widely between 2016 and 2018 and are among are the largest users of the cameras, with more than 1,000 devices deployed by each agency.
But the deployment of the cameras is slower or non-existent in some neighboring communities and agencies. A spokesperson for the Alexandria Police Department told the I-Team, “The short answer is Alexandria does not currently have BWCs in our police department. It is something that we would embrace as we believe transparency is important, but for us to have them we would need City Council to approve the resources to be able to obtain and maintain them.”
