RECORDED Area law enforcement moving to deploy body cameras ALEX KOMA
akoma@insidenova.com
he Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office could soon equip all its deputies with body-worn cameras in an effort to build trust with the community — but will the new technology live up to its potential to hold police accountable to the public? That’s the question civil rights leaders and policy experts are asking as county supervisors mull a department-wide expansion of the bodyworn camera program. Sheriff David Decatur initiated a 90-day pilot program for just over a dozen deputies last year, and now Decatur is hoping supervisors will approve a new budget for his office that includes funding to make the program permanent. Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office
spokeswoman M.C. Morris Moncure noted that the office was initially hoping to get a grant from the Department of Justice to help defray the costs of a body-camera system, but the county didn’t end up winning those funds. Now, Decatur is hoping to use over $179,000 in “seized asset money” to pay for the devices themselves and fund the roughly $300,000 in annual operating costs out of the office budget, Morris Moncure said. But she noted the department has yet to develop a formal policy for the program, merely giving deputies “general instruction and guidelines on their use.” If county supervisors ultimately approve the funds, she said, the office will consult with other area departments to craft a policy, but expects that document will not be “publicly disseminated.” That sort of process bears some
similarity to how other nearby locali- Institute, a left-leaning think tank — ties have pursued body-worn camera believes that the longer the office operprograms — Prince William County ates without a clear policy, the longer Police wrapped up a pilot late last year they’ll be “flying blind” when it comes after drafting a policy to govern their to concerns surrounding the technoluse, and are now asking county super- ogy. “We see this all the time with povisors for permission to make the program permanent — but researchers lice adoption of technology,” La Vigne who study the issue are bit disturbed said. “They get so excited about a new crime control method and they just inby Stafford’s process.

STAFFORD CRIME BRIEFS MAN CHARGED WITH POSSESSION OF CONTROLLED SUBSTANCES A Stafford man was charged with two counts of possession of controlled substances Jan. 30 after the Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office responded to a domestic dispute on Ramoth Church CHRISTOPHER WAYNE SCRUGGS Road regarding suspected drug activity. Christopher Wayne Scruggs, 36, of Ramoth Church Road, was incarcerated in the Rappahannock Regional Jail, Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman M.C. Morris Moncure said. TWO ARMED ROBBERIES UNDER INVESTIGATION The Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office is investigating two commercial armed robberies that occurred last weekend and appear to involve the same suspects. Two masked men robbed Ricky’s Chicken II at gunpoint about 9:45 p.m. on Jan. 27, Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office spokeswoman M.C. Morris Moncure said. The business is located at 3619 Jefferson Davis Highway in Stafford. A slim-built white man, accompanied by a larger-framed black man with a handgun entered the restaurant and demanded money from the register, according to Morris Moncure. An undisclosed amount of money was stolen. The second robbery occurred Jan. 29 at approximately 6:35 p.m. at the Latin Market, located at 367 Warrenton Road in Stafford. A store employee told police that a black man pointed a chrome-plated handgun at him while the white man took an undisclosed amount of cash from the register. In each incident, the suspects appeared to flee the scene on foot. A canine track was established in both robberies but fell short as the suspects may have gotten into a vehicle parked close to each scene, according to Morris Moncure. In both incidents, the white man is described as approximately 6 feet tall with a slim build. He was accompanied by a heavier-set black male. Several similar robberies have occurred since Jan. 19 in Northern Virginia. Anyone with any information is asked to contact the Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office at 540-658-4400.

TILE CONTRACTOR CHARGED WITH GRAND LARCENY A King George tile contractor was charged with grand larceny following a dispute over work he did on a couple’s rental property. Corey Alan Henry Estevez, 28, of Comorn Road, was charged with grand larceny, obtaining money by false pretenses,

petit larceny third or subsequent offense, and larceny third or subsequent conviction. On Jan. 28 at approximately 3:50 p.m., Stafford County Sheriff ’s Office Deputy N.C. Potter responded to a disturbance at a Lowe’s store on Banks Ford Parkway in south Stafford. There, a loss prevention employee said that two men and a woman were involved in a dispute. The deputy separated and interviewed them, discovering that one of the men had been hired by the couple to replace tile in a residential rental property. The contractor, COREY ESTEVEZ identified as Estevez, had accompanied the woman to Lowe’s a day earlier and she purchased tile for about $700. Both of them kept a copy of the receipt, police said. Later that day she returned to Lowe’s with her receipt to claim a military discount, but discovered some of the tile had been returned for a refund. She texted Estevez, telling him that he should discontinue work on the project, according to a sheriff ’s report. The rental property tenants then contacted their landlord that Estevez was at the residence picking up the tile. The couple drove to Lowe’s, found Estevez and confronted him about the theft. Estevez was unable to provide any evidence or documentation to counter the assertion. Video provided by loss prevention was reviewed by the deputy and supported the couple’s claim. Estevez was incarcerated at the Rappahannock Regional Jail on no bond.
MAN CHARGED WITH FELONY SHOPLIFTING AT LOWE’S A Stafford man was charged with felony shoplifting after making a trip to Lowe’s Home Improvement Store in Stafford County. Daniel Allen Cook, age 32 of Stony Hill Road, vis- DANIEL COOK ited the store at 299 Banks Ford Parkway in Fredericksburg, at about 9:45 a.m. on Jan. 30. Cook was seen removing tags from items and putting the merchandise in his coat pocket, according to a sheriff ’s report. Police also found a variety of unopened merchandise and tools that Lowe’s routinely sells, inside Cook’s vehicle. Drug paraphernalia was also recovered in the search. Cook was incarcerated at the Rappahannock Regional Jail on a $1,500 secured bond. — Staff report

Gov. Terry McAuliffe speaks at an economic symposium in Falls Church.
McAuliffe touts economic successes »
Virginia continues to be an economic powerhouse, but several factors – including new Trump administration policies – may throw a wrench into the juggernaut, Gov. Terry McAuliffe said Feb. 1 during an economic symposium in the Falls Church area. The governor touted his frenetic, worldwide efforts to draw businesses and trade to Virginia and said the commonwealth’s wine, craft-beer and shipping industries were going like gangbusters. But McAuliffe expressed concern that a second round of federal-budget “sequestration” cuts might be imposed later this year. The first batch of reductions, implemented from 2011 to 2013, cost Virginia 158,000 jobs and $9.8 billion in direct spending, he said. The governor, a big backer of Democrat Hillary Clinton’s failed presidential run last year, said he was
“a little concerned” about the Trump administration’s hectic first week in office. McAuliffe worried that repeal of the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare) without a suitable replacement plan would cost Virginia $300 million immediately. Trump’s federal hiring freeze will hit Virginia harder than any other state and the president’s new immigration policies also will affect the state negatively, he said. The governor also opposed Trump’s backing out of the TransPacific Partnership, saying that 60 percent of Virginia’s trade was with the 11 nations involved in that economic pact. “We cannot just sell our products to ourselves,” McAuliffe said. “Ninety-five percent of our customers are outside the United States.” McAuliffe, speaking at the “Mapping New Economic Opportunities” announced that Nestlé would move its North American headquarters from California to Arlington.

More than 60 supporters greeted Corey Stewart at a southern Stafford kick-off for his gubernatorial campaign on Jan. 27. The at-large chairman of the Prince William Board of County Supervisors was cheered at Aladdin Mediterranean Bar and Grill for his past efforts to get 7,500 illegal aliens off the streets and handed over to the federal government. Stewart introduced his wife, Maria, who hails from Sweden, saying she’s a legal U.S. citizen. He intends to make sure all illegal immigrants are moved out of Virginia. “If you’re here illegally,” said Stewart, “ you need to get out.” The candidate went on to say, “We need to stop the blood flow of wealth and jobs leaving the commonwealth.” He said he intends to accomplish this by phasing out Virginia’s income tax to insure the commonwealth is competitive with neighboring states such as North Carolina. “My message is very clear,” said Stewart. “Virginia is open for business.” Stewart reminded the crowd that the only way you’ll get an elected official to agree with you 100 percent is if you run for office yourself. Stewart is a staunch supporter of President Donald Trump and had served as

his Virginia campaign director during most of the presidential campaign. The candidate said, “I mean what I say and say what I mean.” Stating he comes from a position of strength, Stewart said, “In 2016 we took back the country and in 2017 we're going to take back the commonwealth.” Stewart first mentioned his run for governor at the Virginia Republican Convention in April, telling an AP reporter that he planned to officially announce his run in October 2016. He has been crisscrossing the commonwealth this past month rallying support and garnering signatures needed to get on the ballot in Virginia.

Anyone who has bought a home knows the paperwork involved. Stacks of contracts, each with its own series of “sign heres” and “initial theres.” One of the clauses in one of the paragraphs in one of the sections of one of those forms is a passage that requires the bank that holds the mortgage to place a public notice in the local newspaper before it evicts you for falling behind on your payments. This is an important safeguard for homeowners. State Senate Majority Leader Thomas K. Norment, R-James City, is trying to take it away. Again. Norment is sponsoring Senate Bill 1368, which would remove that requirement from the lenders and instead only require them to let homeowners know that they can check on foreclosure notices filed at the courthouse or posted online. In full disclosure, the newspaper industry has a financial stake here. When these required notices of pending foreclosure appear in print, they are paid ads. We profit from them. But that has little to do with our opposition to Norment’s bill. Those who support Sen. Norment’s bill argue that it is less expensive to forgo paid advertise-
ments and instead put the word out by social media and other digital channels. There are plenty of residents who don’t own computers, or who aren’t online every day or who only wade — rather than surf — the Internet. In many cases, these people get their information from the newspaper. If critical information must be conveyed, with a reasonable likelihood of reaching them, that paid legal notice is as good a bet as any. It needs to remain in the contract, in the agreement between buyer, seller and lender. In a standard loan contract, it is the lender’s responsibility — financial and otherwise — to take these steps, including the newspaper ad. A homeowner about to have the rug pulled out — along with the walls, the ceilings, the doors, and windows — should receive every possible notice. Allowing the other parties to ignore their contractual obligations? Putting the onus on that homeowner to check the courthouse and negotiate municipal and court websites? This is not acceptable, even if it does save a few bucks. (This editorial adapted with permission from The Daily Press of Newport News.)
The price of walls and racial rhetoric Sir Isaac Newton’s Third Law of Motion stating “For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction” speaks to the political reality of DANIEL CORTEZ the funding opposition to President Donald Trump’s much touted and controversial southern wall soon to begin construction. Elections have consequences and the much-discussed wall will and should be built. My internal rage after having a godson murdered by an undocumented criminal protected in a sanctuary city environment will diminish once the wall is constructed and immigration laws finally adhered to. I’m sure the family of Sister Denise Mosier wishes the Trump crackdown on illegals had been enacted in 2010. Perhaps then Carlos A. Martinelly Montano, who illegally entered this country, would not have crashed into Mosier’s vehicle in Prince William County and killed her. To add insult to injury, Martinelly Montano had twice been convicted of drunken driving and had not been deported. Trump officials perhaps acted hasty in the president’s desire to live up to campaign promises and spoke with political emotion not acknowledging

actual market reaction to paying for the border wall. But to those of us who have suffered from the terror of illegal alien crime, the wall can’t come soon enough. Economic experts vociferously suggest the planned 20 percent tax on Mexican imports as the way to finance the structure would simply be passed on to American consumers. Whether it be construction of the wall, the Dreamer issue, voter IDs, driver licenses or undocumented immigrants seeking to serve in our armed forces if qualified, the critical Latin voter base becomes apoplectic when they’re not even consulted before politicos speak on such sensitive issues. Had they consulted someone like Virginia Hispanic businessman Luis Quinonez, president of the multi-million dollar MAQ Diversified that provides health services to the government and the private sector, he’d suggested a more palatable way to pay for the wall. “Such a tariff on import goods by Trump would simply be a tax on the U.S. consumer,” Quinonez said in an interview. “The more expedient way to pay for the wall is by adding an across the board tax of at least 10 percent to all funds sent from immigrants to their home countries.” Quinonez according to defense officials speaking on the condition of anonymity, remains a top contender for a ranking DOD position EDUCATION

in the Trump administration to be announced soon. What remains incredulous but not unexpected is the intense scrutiny the week-and-a-half old Trump administration receives from legislators and state chief executives including Gov. Terry McAuliffe, who joined protestors at Dulles Airport critical of the president’s ban on seven Muslim countries who harbor terrorist regimes and on building the wall. What the political opposition conveniently forgets to acknowledge is 8 U.S. Code 1182 discussing inadmissible aliens. It reads “Whenever the President finds that the entry of any aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interest of the United States, he may by proclamation, and for such period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens as immigrants or nonimmigrants, or impose on the entry of aliens any restrictions he may deem to be appropriate.” But Democrats are out of power and, keeping with Isaac Newton’s words, will continue to find an equal and opposite reaction any way they can.

Marines’ museum set for annual MRE cook-off The fourth-annual Meal Ready-toEat Cook-Off will be held Saturday at the National Museum of the Marine Corps in Triangle from 2 to 4 p.m. The free event is open to the general public and will be held outside the Devil Dog Diner at the museum. Contestants will vie for the coveted Golden Canteen Cup as chefs pull two MREs from a box and combine them to create one meal to present to this year’s judges. The judges are the museum’s chef and the manager from Mission BBQ in Stafford. Contestants will add their own special ingredients to a recipe and all ingredients must fit into a one-gallon plastic bag (approximately the size of a cargo pocket on the Marine utility uniform). Each
MRE packs about 1,200 calories, contains a main course, side dish, dessert or snack, bread, spread, beverage mix, utensils, a heater, beverage-mixing bag and more. MREs are consumed by the military when traditional food is not readily available. Although contestant slots are full, the cook-off staff encourages individuals or two-person teams to sign up to be placed on a waiting list. Should a contestant cancel, waitlisted participants will be notified. To sign up, contact Michele Flynn at michele. flynn@usmcu.edu. The museum is located at 18900 Jefferson Davis Highway, in Triangle. For more information, call 703-784- 6107 or visit usmcmuseum. com and marineheritage.org.

AT THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
House OKs carrying concealed switchblades » BY MARY LEE CLARK
Capital News Service
Virginians soon may be allowed to carry concealed switchblade knives under legislation moving through the General Assembly. The House of Delegates voted 57-39 Monday to approve HB 1432 and send it to the Senate for consideration. The bill was sponsored by Republican Dels. Lee Ware of Powhatan and Scott Lingamfelter of Woodbridge. The bill states, “Any person may carry a switchblade knife concealed when such knife is carried for the purpose of engaging in a lawful profession or recreational activity the performance of which is aided by the use of a switchblade knife.” Ware said he proposed the bill on behalf of knife collectors such as the Greater Richmond Knife Club. He also said roofers and other workers use switchblade knives in their jobs.
“Look past the shining but disorienting name – switchblade – and look at the actual purpose and the actual words of the legislation, and join me in helping ordinary folks, hobbyists and tradesmen by voting on this bill,” Ware told his colleagues. In addition to tool and knife groups, the bill has also been supported by Second Amendment rights groups. Del. Alfonso Lopez, D-Arlington, spoke against the bill, saying its language is too broad and would allow people with bad intentions to legally conceal carry a switchblade. He said the bill is well-intentioned but would have bad consequences. “Switchblades were originally put into the code several times to keep these deadly weapons out of the hands of gangs,” Lopez said. “Dangerous and deadly weapons like these in the hands of a bad actor are not good for our communities to have
around.” Under current law, it is legal to own and open-carry switchblades in Virginia, but it is illegal to conceal-carry certain knives including switchblades, bowie knives and dirks. Dirks are small daggers. Similar knife legislation has been approved in the Senate: • Like HB 1432, Senate Bill 1347 would allow switchblades to be carried concealed. It passed the Senate last week on a vote of 23-16 with one abstention. • SB 865 allows the transfer of dirks, switchblade and bowie knives from family members to a minor. The Senate approved the bill last week, 21-19.

‘Left-lane bandits’ may face $250 fine » BY NICK VERSAW
Capital News Service
The House of Delegates approved a bill that would impose a mandatory $250 fine for driving too slowly in the left lane on highways. HB 2201 was introduced by Del. Israel O’Quinn, R-Bristol, and co-sponsored by Democrats Del. Kaye Kory of Falls Church and Sen. Scott Surovell of Fairfax. O’Quinn said this is something that affects all Virginians, regardless of which side of the aisle they align themselves with. “It doesn’t matter which corner of the commonwealth you come from,” he said when addressing the bill on the House floor Monday. “It doesn’t matter which interstate or four-lane highway that you
have going through the districts you represent. I guarantee you are going to encounter this many times, even if you’re on the highways for just a few minutes.” “Left lane bandits,” as they are often known, have become a “particularly pervasive and ever-growing problem” on Virginia roadways, O’Quinn said. Under current Virginia law, driving in the left lane is illegal except when passing or when it is deemed “otherwise impractical,” but there is no fine for failing to obey the law. O’Quinn said that, for the safety of all Virginian drivers, he hopes to change that. “I consulted with a lot of law enforcement officers, first responders, et cetera, about this, and every single one of them, without fail, had some sort of story where
they ran up on a car who’s going grossly under the speed limit in the left lane, which then required them to have to attempt to pass on the right, which is not legal nor safe,” O’Quinn said. “A number of close calls and a few accidents, in fact, have occurred from that.” O’Quinn also said that, in addition to helping curb dangerous high-speed accidents, the bill would help decrease road rage incidents on Virginia’s highways. The House voted 66-31 for final passage of the bill on Tuesday. It now goes to the Senate for further consideration.

Senate committee shoots down bill allowing ‘constitutional carry’ » BY NICK VERSAW
Capital News Service
The Senate Finance Committee shot down a bill Wednesday that would have allowed “constitutional carry” in Virginia. SB 1440, introduced by Sen. Dick Black, R-Leesburg, would have negated the need for concealed handgun permits in Virginia by allowing all law-abiding gun owners to carry concealed weapons without a permit across the state. Black’s bill was approved by the Senate Courts of Justice Committee on Jan. 18 by a 9-6 voice vote, but it was killed unanimously by the Senate Finance Committee on Wednesday before it could reach the full chamber.

2016, but it was defeated on the Senate floor after Republican Sen. Emmett Hanger of Mount Solon joined the 19 Democratic senators in voting against the bill, resulting in a 20-20 vote. Because of the stalemate, Lt. Gov. Ralph Northam, a Democrat, cast the deciding vote to defeat the bill. Constitutional carry – given its name by gun rights activists who believe the right to carry concealed weapons is implied by the Second Amendment – has been a hot-button issue around the country in recent years. Since 2015, seven states have passed similar legislation, bringing the total tally of constitutional carry states to 11. Similar bills are being considered by legislatures in Texas, New Hampshire, Georgia, South
Dakota, Utah and Minnesota. Despite the death of Black’s bill, Second Amendment advocates still have hope for the passage of constitutional carry in Virginia. Similar legislation was introduced earlier this month in the House of Delegates by Del. Ben Cline, R-Amherst. It is currently awaiting hearing by the House Militia, Police and Public Safety Committee. However, Cline’s iteration of the legislation, HB 2265, must be approved by the committee and be passed by the House by Tuesday – the deadline by which all legislation must pass its originating chamber in order to be considered during the 2017 session. The bill is not on the agenda to be heard during the committee’s meeting Friday.

Area bases get business community salute The 6th annual Salute to the Armed Forces Luncheon at the Clubs at Quantico aboard Marine Corps Base Quantico brought out over 200 members and guests on Jan. 24. Presented by the Prince William Chamber of Commerce Veterans Council, the luncheon honors the contributions of the active-duty service members and veterans across the Prince William and Northern Virginia, according to the chamber. The keynote speaker was Jaime Areizga-Soto, deputy secretary of Veterans and Defense Affairs, who said that the commonwealth has a zero “functional” homelessness rate for veterans, having answered a challenge issued by former first lady Michelle Obama. The Salute also featured status reports from Fort Belvoir and Marine Corps Base Quantico, along with special recognition for outstanding soldiers and Marines.

Quantico Base Commander Col. Joseph Murray participated in a commendation ceremony usually only seen by members of a Marine’s battalion. Cpl. Richard Rossetti was recognized for exceptional performance of duty while serving as the single marine program representative, volunteer service coordinator and air traffic controller. Cpl. Daniel Lawler was recognized for exceptional performance of his duties while serving as a military police officer and special reaction team member. He was also named non-commissioned officer of the last quarter of 2016 and the first quarter of 2017 for his “charismatic and vested interest in the growth of his fellow Marines.” Fort Belvoir Headquarters Battalion Commander Lt. Col. Christopher Tomlinson recognized Pfc. Octavio Rodriguez of the Fort Belvoir Community Hospital for his exceptional efforts to both Fort Belvoir and Quantico, according to the Fort Belvoir Facebook page. World War II Navy veteran Chilton “Chilly” Raiford was the last speaker of the day. The 94-year-old veteran recounted his military service and how he survived two kamikaze attacks and rescued fellow servicemen.

Ignacio Alleyne is looking at playing pro basketball overseas after graduating from Penn State Beaver this spring. SUBMITTED
Colonial Forge grad winding up four years at Penn State Beaver » BY DAVID DRIVER
For InsideNoVa
Ignacio Alleyne is not the first member of his family to play college sports in Pennsylvania. But the graduate of Colonial Forge High in Stafford is playing at a different sport and at a different level in the Keystone State. Alleyne is a senior forward at Penn State Beaver, a Division III basketball program in the western part of the state. He was recently named the athlete of the week at the school after he scored 66 points as the Lions won two of three games. During that stretch he had 29 rebounds, four assists, four steals and a block. In one game he had 31 points and 14 rebounds. “I have been a captain since I was a sophomore,” said Alleyne, a three-year starter. “With all that, I never felt any different than before. I have always had that leadership. With the new guys coming in I try to show them the right way to play and how we play.” “When it comes to being that vocal
leader, I probably fit more in leadership by example,” he added. “But I can be as vocal as anyone else.” His brother, Dominique Harris, went to Woodson High in Washington, D.C., and later played football at Temple in Philadelphia. He was part of the Buffalo Bills system in 2010 and then played for Tampa Bay in the NFL in 2010 and 2011. Alleyne started 18 of the first 19 games and averaged 27.9 minutes, 14.6 points and 7.8 rebounds per contest. The team was 9-10 overall and 5-5 in conference play and will be on the road Feb. 4 to face Penn State Fayette. “We are very young. We are trying to find each other,” he said. “We have a lot of potential. I believe that we can go very far. We need to win some games to get into the conference tournament.” The head coach is Brian Bibey, who is in his second season at the helm. The Lions were 9-15 overall and 7-9 in conference play last season. Bibey said Alleyne has been a key player this season for the Lions.

COLONIAL FORGE GRAD WITH CHRISTOPHER NEWPORT Colonial Forge High graduate Carion Eaton is a freshman guard with Division III Christopher Newport, which was ranked No. 3 in the country as of Jan. 22. Eaton played in 10 of the first 18 games and averaged 5.0 minutes and 0.8 points per contest. Eaton helped Colonial Forge win two state titles, in 2014 and 2015, under coach Jason John. Eaton was an all-conference

HASKINS WITH CHOWAN Marco Haskins, a graduate of Colonial Forge, is a sophomore guard at Division II Chowan in North Carolina. He played in the first 18 games, with 15 starts, and was third in the team in scoring at 13 points per contest. Haskins was second on the team in assists and third in steals. The Hawks won 13 of their first 18 games and play Feb. 4 at Elizabeth City State College. Haskins had 21 points against Elizabeth City State in January in a game at Chowan.

Bibey is the third head coach in college for Alleyne, who also looked at Frostburg State in Maryland and Penn State Altoona coming out of high school. Alleyne is studying criminal justice and is on track to graduate in the spring. He is interested in playing pro basketball overseas and if that does not work out he plans to explore criminal justice options. His father is an investigator with the police department in the District of Columbia and his mother has worked for the same department.

Camera
FROM PAGE 1
engage the community in developing a document before putting the cameras on the streets is a method much more conducive to building public trust. Police Chief Barry Barnard oversaw a 60-day pilot with the cameras last summer, and on Jan. 17, he told supervisors that the 30 officers using the technology found it to be “overwhelmingly” beneficial and he’s ready to move forward with buying cameras for the whole department. The board has yet to take a vote on that request — though it did discuss the issue in a closed session on Jan. 24 — but the department still has $2.7 million set aside for the program, and only needs approval to start negotiating with vendors to buy a full camera system. For his part, the Rev. Cozy Bailey, president of Prince William’s chapter of the NAACP, believes it’s “time to move forward” with a permanent body camera program. Though he noted that the department has an “outstanding reputation in the community,” he also thinks the technology could help preserve that reputation. “Unlike other departments that serve communities of a similar size, the Prince William police department is poised to implement this more as a proactive, preventive measure as opposed to responding to negative activities,” Bailey said. Indeed, many other communities across the country have called for transparency measures like body cameras in the wake of police killings that have ripped communities apart. While Prince William has largely avoided that sort of controversy, Bailey thinks a “well-considered” program would help protect police officers and everyday citizens alike. That’s why he said the NAACP was more than happy to help the police department craft a policy to govern the program as police leaders first started gearing up for a pilot in late 2015. Sgt. Jonathan Perok, a police spokesman, said the department consulted with “over 50 community stakeholders” to develop that policy, reaching out to local colleges, the county school board, church leaders, medical experts, county lawyers, police groups and members of the media to hone the document. A copy of the policy obtained by InsideNova shows that the document lays out standards dictating when officers should turn the cameras on and off, how the department stores footage captured by the devices and how it will release those videos publicly (if at all). In all, Bailey feels the policy generally aligned with “emerging best practices” in the field. But technology policy experts still have their fair share of criticisms to offer of the document, especially since it could someday set rules for a full body camera program. Chiefly, La Vigne worries that the policy doesn’t lay out the correct criteria for when officers should activate the cameras. The document stipulates that they turn the cameras on during a civilian encounter if there’s “reasonable suspicion that the person is involved in criminal activity or a violation of law,” but La Vigne points out that sort of direction omits the sort of everyday interaction where an officer might act inappropriately. “The spirit of the policy suggests that CLASSIFIED

they think the purpose of the cameras is to capture bad guys doing bad things, and that’s not what the public generally believes,” La Vigne said. “You want to make it a policy that suggests they’re on as much as possible.” Bailey has similar concerns with that section, but does note that the policy also gives officers some discretion to turn their cameras on in any situation they feel is appropriate, making it crucial that the department sufficiently train officers to have the “background and context to exercise that discretion.” Bogen does give the department high marks for laying out situations when officers should deactivate their cameras to protect the privacy of witnesses, victims and other people in sensitive situations. But she’s more concerned that the policy gives officers the chance to view their own camera’s recordings before preparing a report or delivering court testimony. “We’re concerned that officers would conform reports to the footage that they see, and there’s no reason that they couldn’t document their initial impression of the event and then supplement that and incorporate the footage after that,” Bogen said. Harlan Yu, a principal at Upturn, pointed out that the police chief has the authority to bar an officer from viewing a recording, particularly if it includes a “significant traumatic event.” Yet he added that “you can imagine a situation where the chief of police always eventually gives an officer involved in a shooting the leeway to watch the footage.” Bogen and Yu are both pleased that the policy lays out clear footage retention standards (any video deemed “non-evidentiary” is preserved for 60 days, while any “evidentiary” footage is held for at least 180 days) but they would’ve preferred to see a dedicated process to let a citizen considering filing a complaint see any relevant footage. As the policy stands now, it only allows for public access to footage via a court order or a public records request. La Vigne suggests that could allow for some access to the videos, but would much rather see a defined process for releasing them in the case of an officer-involved shooting or similarly controversial incident. “That’s the time that the public is the most likely to demand transparency and the release of the video, and yet there are all these loopholes (in the public records law) that enables law enforcement to withhold their release,” La Vigne said. Despite those flaws, the policy experts believe that the county will at least be generally in line with the standards set by one area department currently running a camera: Manassas Park. The department’s policy, also obtained by InsideNoVa, isn’t substantially different from the county’s document, though La Vigne notes that it doesn’t contain a provision explicitly laying out when officers should activate their cameras. Manassas police Capt. Brian Larking said his department has $190,000 set aside to test out body cameras, and they plan to move ahead with a program of their own once they can hire another IT staffer and apply for grants to help sustain funding for the effort. But Larking said they’re also crafting a policy to govern a potential pilot, with input from the county, and could get something off the ground by this summer. OPINION
