22. Immigration Enforcement use of Body Worn Video Supt Cleave Faulkner National Operations and Assurance September 2013 Restricted

23. Why we are looking to use BWV To increase number of successful illegal working Civil penalties and out of court settlements in favour of the Home Office Reduce bureaucracy Obtain better evidence to prosecute persistent offenders who continue to employ illegal workers

24. Improve collating post critical incident data. Reduce clearly unfounded/malicious complaints. To capture evidence on contentious family visits Improve officer safety. Reassure the public. Verify training/development needs by reviewing operational footage. Other benefits for I E

25. We plan to issue BWV devices to Immigration Officers conducting enforcement visits. Officers will record entry to premises and interviews with those encountered. Evidence captured of illegal working will be made available to the team who pursue civil penalty action Plans for use of BWV

26. Officers currently make verbatim notes of interviews With offenders and others encountered on the visit in Their personal notebook. They will no longer need to do this if the BWV Contextualizes what was actually seen and said. Officers will only need to produce a summary of the Interview and just exhibit the video in their statement Transcription

27. We will pilot the use of BWV with two Immigration Enforcement teams based in Manchester and Cardiff. A draft process will be amended in light of the result and findings of the pilot. Findings to support a national roll out to all Immigration Enforcement teams. WE NEED TO PROVE THE CASE AND DEMONSTRATE TANGIBLE BENEFITS Pilot

28. To reduce by 50% the time taken to complete illegal working interviews. 2012 saw over 14,500 operations Increase the number of illegal working detections Income generate to self sustain the deployment of Body Worn Video Business Benefits

29. Training on the use of BWV will be delivered to officers on group team basis with a full hands on approach We envisage holding a 2 hour training session with officers at the various Immigration Compliance Engagement (ICE) team locations. Training

30. Convincing staff to revise current practice in light of benefit and use of BWV - CULTURE Dealing with noise contamination Consistent national approach in evidence gathering Challenges

31. Terms of reference and project mandate complete and agreed by senior managers Policy and legal advice sought Workshops with operational staff, service providers and stakeholders held Initial guidance and process drafted Work completed so far

35. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm West Midlands Police Body Worn Video Camera Experiment Rialto P.D. California T/Insp 3908 Darren Henstock

36. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm The public’s perception of police use of force continues to be a problem. “Too many” incidents in which officers resort to use of force. Misinterpretation of contact or aggressive behaviour? “High number” of citizen complaints against police officers. True officer misbehaviour or malicious complaints? The problem

37. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm The Challenges Reducing use of force and complaints without changing the frequency and nature of contact with the public Requires third-party systematic observation that would scientifically measure both the implementation and the outcome of the practice Cost effectiveness Leadership – can we implement this research

38. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Cameras in Police Use 61% of police departments used video cameras in patrol cars in 2007. (U.S. Department of Justice 2010) Cameras are likely to: 1.Improve accountability 2.Reduce complaints of police misconduct 3.Save thousands of dollars in court costs 4.Lower overtime costs for investigations and court appearances 5.Improve ability to collect evidence for trial 6.Increase professionalism by forcing officers to give more attention to following agency rules. (International Association of Police Chiefs, 2004)

39. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Evidence on Cameras Systematic review on CCTV – 44 studies show 16% reduction in crime compared to control conditions, but half accountable to car theft, not violent crime (Welsh and Farrington 2009). Systematic review on cameras on roads – 35 studies show 44% reduction in fatal accidents (Wilson et al. 2010). BWV – no formal evaluation.

40. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Research Questions Will wearing body-worn video cameras reduce the number of complaints against officers compared to the control group? Will wearing body-worn video cameras reduce the number (instances) of use of force compared to the control group?

41. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Research Design Random assignment of all front-line officers to shifts with or without cameras Taser Inc. HD cameras recording all police-public interactions for 12 months. Went live 13 th February 2012 after two weeks of Phase 1.

42. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Results - complaints

43. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Results – Use of force

44. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Summary Reduction in use of force incidents from 61 to 25. Of the 25 use of force incidents, 17 were in control group and 8 in the experiment. Of the 8 use of force incidents on the experiment days, all 8 were recorded on video Reduction in complaints from 24 to 3. Contacts increased from the previous years – no backfiring effect. Survey of all officers before and during RCT shows no significant changes in officers’ self-legitimacy

45. Serving our communities, protecting them from harm Further work Randomised Control Trial in the West Midlands supported by Cambridge University in order to replicate Rialto project.

46. POLICE BODY WORN CAMERA: DISCLOSURE AND IDENTIFICATION ISSUES

47. DISCLOSURE ISSUES

48. REASONABLE LINES OF ENQUIRY In conducting an investigation, the investigator should pursue all reasonable lines of inquiry, whether these point towards or away from the suspect- Code of Practice CPIA paragraph 3.5 Reasonable enquiries might involve a trawl for bodyworn camera evidence (akin to CCTV trawl or ANPR trawl etc)

49. RETENTION It is important that bodyworn camera evidence is preserved for a reasonable period of time on the basis that it might become relevant material in any criminal investigation Criminal investigation in respect of which the officer with bodyworn camera is in attendance or another investigation

50. ABUSE OF PROCESS The criminal proceedings might be stayed for abuse of process if relevant bodyworn camera evidence is destroyed The burden of proof is on the defence to prove that a fair trial is not possible In any event, opportunities to bolster the prosecution case will be lost

51. RELEVANT MATERIAL Once bodyworn camera footage is identified as relevant to an investigation, it must be retained by the investigator (Code of Practice CPIA paragraph 5.1) Retention for the time periods in paragraphs 5.7- 5.10: NFA decision/ acquittal or 6 months after conviction or on the defendant’s release from custody (if later than 6 months after conviction ) All relevant footage must be scheduled on MG6C

52. EVIDENTIAL FOOTAGE Page 16 National File Standard (part of Director’s Guidance on Charging) Copies of the footage must accompany the prosecution file and be served as Initial Details of the Prosecution Case (IDPC) i.e. first appearance Nothing is more likely to trigger an admission and a guilty plea than the inclusion of this Any footage that establishes the offence should be shown to the suspect in an interview

53. IDENTIFICATION ISSUES

54. PITFALLS Where identification is in issue (or might be in issue) in the criminal prosecution, extreme care must be taken where it is intended to show the footage to witnesses

55. NO KNOWN SUSPECT (1) The bodyworn camera footage is akin to CCTV. There will be occasions where it is appropriate to show the footage to persons (usually police officers) for the purposes of recognition This must be done in accordance with PACE Code D 3.34- 3.37

56. NO KNOWN SUSPECT (2) D3.34- 3.37: persons must view the footage individually; no collusion; no names should be suggested; a contemporaneous record should be made of the viewing on which the court can gauge the reliability of the recognition Wherever possible, avoid showing the footage to eye witnesses: the weight to be attached to any subsequent positive identification at parade will be reduced

57. KNOWN SUSPECT The footage can be shown to persons who are not non-eye witnesses for the purposes of recognition even where there is a known suspect (i.e. at stage where there is sufficient evidence to arrest a suspect). Viewing procedure must comply with D3.34- 3.37 At known suspect stage, the footage must not be shown to eye witnesses
