WALL POLICE PARTICIPATE IN MONMOUTH COUNTY PILOT PROGRAM TO ASSESS POLICE USE OF BODY-WORN CAMERAS
Three municipal police departments in Monmouth County will participate in a pilot program to evaluate the operability and feasibility of police officer body-worn cameras for possible future countywide deployment, announced Acting Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni.
The Howell, Middletown and Wall Township Police Departments have been selected as the pilot program participants for the police officer body-mounted cameras purchased with funds from the Monmouth County Prosecutor’s Law Enforcement Trust Account (CLETA). The Prosecutor’s Office will coordinate and oversee the pilot project. The three police departments were chosen for their geography, population, and the compatibility and integration of currently deployed vehicle-mounted on-board camera technology with the new body-worn camera technology being assessed.
