New Buffering Parameters
Evidently, the City wasn't getting anything with which to jam officers up on body camera, so they are unilaterally increasing the pre-event buffering from 30 seconds to two full minutes.
They have agreed to hold off on programming this into the body cameras until the FOP meets with Department officials. The FOP has also promised a labor action though we (and numerous e-mailers) believe the FOP has misstated the situation slightly, saying that it's "audio recording" instead of "visual recording." As we understand the systems, audio kicks in upon manual activation of the camera.
Anyone know why? We can't think of a single reason that doesn't involve someone playing "gotcha!" with the footage. 99% of the footage is going to be of the steering wheel or the airbag cover. Maybe it'll catch us twirling the radio dial to US 99 or something - is that illegal now?
On the other hand, maybe it'll catch the asshole who keeps carving up the steering wheel in our pool rides.

The steering wheel problem is from getting in and out with your gun/gunbelt.
Sounds like an unfair labor practice.
Its filming the whole time anyway. We should have discretion when to activate, then and only then does 2mins make sense.
It’s for the best. When shit hits the fan it’s hard to remember to hit the button or you don’t have the time to check if the recording activated. There’s been a few times I wish it caught more. As much resistance as there is to the BWC, in the end it shows we do things the right way and the scum bags can’t argue with the video.
SCC: used to work CTA Special Employment and could never figure out why anyone would want to carve up the steering wheel. You spend at least 5 hours in the car so why destroy it? Sorry to read that crap still goes on.

Hey SCC,
Cato is getting out of control. He's decided no officers or sgts will be able to leave 015. He's currently blocked tact officers from going to narcotics, gangs, and sat stating that going to those units aren't in the best interest of that/those officers. He's also blocked watch people from going to units that are only a detail and that don't actually require a commanders approval. He's ignoring commanders and the deputy chiefs phone calls and emails trying to get in contact with him regarding those officers leaving. He's "lost" aka shredded sgts paperwork who is trying to leave. He's "trying" to act in the best interest of those officers, even tho we can all see through his bullshit and we all know that he just cares about himself. Morale in 15 is an all time low. At this point give this man his next rumored promotion of dics south. He needs to be gone!!!
US 99? That is hill billy music.
Well the City lied. BWCs are recording a full 2 minutes prior to manual activation.
They lied, its already active and installed and working in district 010. Several officers checked and verified it.
Recordings are to be saved indefinitely. 2 minutes of buffering is 4x the amount of the 30 seconds that was originally decided upon. Storage costs $$$. That extra 90 seconds adds up. It will make someone, and cost the city, a whole lot of money.
The 2 minute buffer is occurring now. They instituted it. No audio though.
The adult attorney children of aldermen, who specialize in suing the city for awards approved by their parents, aren't getting enough business.
It's always about the Benjamin's, yo
The goal of the department is to eventually have cameras on and recording both audio and video your entire tour. This is just the second step towards that goal. The hope is to capture more evidence of police misconduct, inappropriate or vulgar conversations, and minor rule infractions. Because our political leaders (mayor, State's Attorney, Cook County President, Chief Judge of Cook County Courts) and our Superintendent know their policies will enable criminals and create a more unstable and criminal-friendly environment, they intend on vigorously suspending, firing, and prosecuting police officers. The media is always eager for body cam video to slander and malign us, and our overlords are more than happy to provide it. They will attempt to distract the public from real crime by demonstrating how the real problem is the police. Officers must realize that the anti-police movement is in charge of all facets of our government--city, county, and state. They run the show, and our heads have to roll for them to continue the charade that we, not the criminals, are the problem for our social ills. You have been warned.
The starting times ARE changing.
Anyone got info?
Already in effect, started today, a whole two minutes of the steering wheel before anything else
It’s all about police shootings and current civil litigation. Most body cams on shootings are getting activated as the offender is already down. Only 30 seconds leading up isn’t painting the picture all the time or it’s missing the actions of the bad guy so this will increase what we see and a more full picture of what happened.
It’s for your own good is how they keep selling it!
Now go out there and work hard:)
Please be false. This job already sucks. I have a little more than 3 years on and it's getting worse every year. Fuck.
Once again I wish to thank Dean Angelo who stood at the FOP podium and told us, “The cameras are a good thing”.
Don't talk to anyone.
People are tricky anyways.
I move from hole to hole and listen to Michael Savage podcasts.
US 99 is terrible.
I never could understand the sick fucks that did that to the steering wheel. Or why. And this was 30 years ago. Guess some things never change.
My guess, and I don’t drink the kool aid, because we still don’t turn them on fast enough. That shooting with the barber in 003 that led to riots and nonsense was captured in buffering. Some of the most important footage I have seen has been in the buffering phase of the video, during that time when it is registering with most officers to hit the button. It is a mixed bag because there have been times I wanted more recorded, and others where I was doing some personal stuff moments before (ie. the bathroom).
They are going back 2 minutes because most coppers fail to activate their cameras until the Sh&t hits the fan.
Redneck noise man. Gimme some Motown jams.
Everything is being done to put the total blame on us, you were parked for those 2 minutes when Junebug got shot, it’s your fault. Why weren’t you there when it happened. I was gonna try and give Lightfoot a chance, now we know.
This will give me more time to do the Napoleon Dynamite Bad Dance in front of my partner.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Follow the law, don’t arrest unless complaints are signed, don’t stop anyone based on your knowledge of the area or the person being stopped. Advise warrant procedures.
Now we all going to need a 2 minute countdown timer installed on dash of vehicles. You get a call first thing you do is hit timer, wait 2 minutes then activate BWC. It's just going to delay response time for 2 minutes. Just enough to get the bad guys a chance to get away.
Probably because the same assholes who always get into shit always seem to “forget” to turn on the camera and turn it on way after an event occurs. More likely to cover their questionable tactics. Wake up people.

Dont kid yourself. Theyre recording all the time. How else could they get the two minutes before a job even exists.
Very recently, there was a FOIA request for BWC video of a police involved shooting. Two officers were involved. One camera showed the beginning of the shooting, a chase that lasted about a block, and then the offender going around a corner. That camera shows the officer slicing the pie around the corner and then hearing, but not seeing, numerous gun shots from apparently two different guns. The other officer's camera (the one who ultimately shot the offender) starts at what appears to be the officer having just removed the bad guys gun from his hand. So, the officer remembered to activate the camera more than 30 seconds after the actual shooting. If the buffer were longer, it would show the bad guy shooting at the officer and the officer, justifiably, returning fire.
Does that snake Lemmer have something to do with this?
Can't wait to retire from this SHIT HOLE. I use to like the job. I don't anymore !!!!!
2:53 a.m. bingo, we have a winner. Remember the barber who got shot last year on the south side. Most of that video was in buffering, no audio. When the lawsuit goes to court his family's attorney will argue that the police never announced their office or gave him verbal commands on what they wanted him to do. Police officer's testimony under oath means nothing if it's not supported by audio and video evidence. City loses a ton of money due to a fickle jury, even though the officers were 100 percent correct and followed all department policies and state law. The lengthening of the buffering is to help the city against lawsuits.

No, it is all about seeing if they can catch anything said on the approach that could be made out as derogatory or a basis to sue the deep pockets of the city and fire any officer who heard anything that could be construed by anti-police communists as derogatory and did not report it or to make up a spurious racism charge or some other garbage if an incident/arrest involves any contact with a suspect or use of force.
Yes, possibly could be use for a full picture of suspects actions , but that was NEVER the reason cameras were mandated in the first place and you think this will be different ? LOL
Hey SCC,

He's "lost" aka shredded sgts paperwork who is trying to leave.

Been hearing the rumor of Cato to south for a while. My guess is no commander moves are going to happen until Eddies fate is sealed at the end of the summer
"Old Retired Guy Here, Again !!! Law Enforcement in a "Free Society" has always been a challenge. In my opinion, The Police were, "Unofficially" granted a certain amount of "leeway" in meeting those those challenges. That "leeway" "May" have been stretched a little too much, by a "few" officers. In my opinion, that has resulted in this entire "Over Reaction" by the powers to be. Law Enforcement is not trusted and so monitored today, I can not see how it can be effective. Do you think that was by "Design" ? I hope not.
Please protect your selves and each other.
For some reason, when you mentioned US 99,
I flashed back to Nash Bridges
The tech:
Constant output of data being written to storage media.
Input of data source is video + audio, via analog camera and microphone.
ALL data output is written, aka, saved, to storage device.
The software, aka, instruction set, spected to, now, 120 seconds previous trigger defined point, = official start of saved data, aka, authorized saved data.
The question:
Is ALL data, video & audio, being constantly written, actually, factually, slso being "saved"? Aka, written to hdd and, thus, NOT overwritten?
The difference is significant.
The perception is essential, aka, what is true and what is not true.
Presume the most, aka, ALL the time, is being "saved", and, thus, possible to access, aka, view & listen to.
Big whothefuckever IS watching you.
Big whothefuckever IS seeing what camera lens is inputting, hearing what microphone is inputting, and this is what it is. As constant, aka, continuous, as devices are functioning to specifications. Device & software specifications. NOT the same as human usage of the data thusly written, aka stored, aka "saved".
WTTW = Pay Attention
30 seconds, 2 minutes, 55 minutes. They are such a good thing have them go on when it detects a heart beat.
But wait some good news we are getting out of cps let the pepper spraying kids enjoy we can watch the mayhem as the out of control savages get worse:
Pointing to a recent confrontation between police officers and a student at Marshall High School, Lightfoot also disclosed that the days of having Chicago police officers stationed inside Chicago Public Schools were likely to end on her watch.
The mayor-elect said she has asked Police Supt. Eddie Johnson and Schools CEO Janice Jackson to find another way to guarantee student safety.

You heard it here first & 100% TRUE!!!
I was at a top secret COPA meeting held 20 floors beneath 1121 S. State and was told starting in January 2020 all officers will be required to wear their body camera 24/7, 365 days a year.
The city wants to know what you are doing on your RDO's, what you eat for breakfast, if you wash your hands after a dump, are your uniforms washed, are you bad mouthing the city and what sexual perversions you practice!
The information gathered will determine if the body cameras will be surgically implanted into your forehead.
100% TRUE!!!
I think this is probably a good thing, especially if you forget to turn it on.
Let me say this to you rooks....stay fetal!
Who cares. I’m used to be monitored restricted and told no. Not a whole like of conversations anymore between officers. They may as well mount “Web cameras” to our heads and the whole can watch and listen live.
any police office doing more that the bare minimum at this moment in time...

And that's because people that think they're the real poleece don't turn their cameras on until after that shit hit the fan. I see this every day. It's not had to turn your camera before you exit your car. it's been 2 years or so with bwc, it should be a muscle memory by now
So no audio for 2 minutes instead of 30 seconds ?

And BTW the Asshole who carves up the steering wheels is always some bitter do nothing Asswipe who cant stand his job, and doesn't have the nerve to quit, and get a real job. So, he makes everyone else miserable by acting out like a child.
I don't have and never had a problem with recording my actions as a police officer. I have nothing to hide. It's time for all politicians i.e. mayor, State's Attorney, Cook County President, Chief Judge of Cook County Courts, to do the same. Have body camera's on them during their shift. Make those public officials accountable for their actions. Just look at the history of Chicago and Cities fifty legislative districts and/or wards. These people are elected by their constituency and those constituents' have a right to see and hear how they are being represented.
Don’t worry “gotcha” is for those of you without “Whack.” The rest beat everything they get into. We had a “Rush Street Lt” who’s penalty after groping a young Lady was to take out four wheelers, make the calls, and do nada. Anyone else would be looking for another job at Zales.

Great job dump them all thanks Lori change we can believe in, dumping the self entitled rats, saving millions, saving pensions extra payouts what’s not to approve of? “Oh they don’t have arrest powers,” well we’ll let you know we have a radio and when you hear car 1 you will run your asses there and make that arrest. If they are security guards they can hold for police and we will make arrests and do all paperwork.
The bad is Eddie and elected will not have friends in detail as spies! Just hoping she dumps city clerks city treasurer massive detail also. Why do they have details anyway new police vehicles no 1 even knows who the heck they are! And they also get sergeant pay unlimited overtime at that rate and pension at that rate!
Re the commander who won't let guys leave- I'm retired after 36 years, and spent a lot of that as a Boss. When someone wanted to do something that I didn't think was in their best self-interest, I shared my concerns with them. Then I backed off, approved their transfer, and let them go. I never stood in anyone's way because nobody every stood in my way.
Steering wheel is one thing, but why the fuck are they so dirty inside? I'm gonna start shitting all over personal cars so maybe someone will learn. We share the cars and cant even keep it clean. Throw your shit out. Filthy and useless fucking POs.
In regards to Cato in 015. If the above commenter is right about area south for his ass it would be the greatest gift to 015. Morale is non existent. He manages to fuck everything up, watch wise. Want to leave this shit hole and go somewhere else? Fuck you, manpower issues. Working or fetal police on the watch is fucked. He only cares about Tact from my experience. But not enough to let you go. Oh and before I forget, take some of the LTs with you.
Anybody else in any district besides 015 3rd watch has to be checked off by LT? Some dumb broads snitched on POs going home a bit earlier then them and now 3rd watch is fucked. 3rd LT sold is as "itll be citywide soon so we'll just start now". Fuck, 015 sucks.

The actual pension law proving you wrong

I love the rookies who say “I don’t mind the cameras. They will keep me from getting jammed up” 🙄
Cameras are tools to be used against police and make an easier prosecution or persecution of those officers who are stuck wearing them. The recording don't go away and it will take time but someone will get fired because they believe the cameras were actually used to help you. The TRRs were sold and then introduced to protect officers, but it wasn't long before they were used to identify "problem" officers.
If something is seen or heard on your camera, officers you are obligated to jackpot officers whether you had seen or heard what was captured or not. You will be manipulated in to narrating your camera's captured image and audio thus making you an excellent witness against fellow officer whom you trust your life with on a daily basis. It a clever trick to use your camera against your fellow officers and to make a stronger case for prosecution, suspension or dismissal.
Keep those cameras rolling capturing video of your co-workers who risk their lives on a daily basis. Be on the side of the political pawns in this department, copa, the states attorney's office or federal prosecutors. All know policy but will step up the plate and destroy your professional reputation on behalf of the recidivist criminals who threaten an orderly society. Help those who seek to destroy your profession and place themselves on a higher moral standing in society. Lights, camera, action. Or inaction.

I agree. But, if it was a WBMX Hotmix tape, then an Honorable Mention is in order.
All body worn cameras (BWC) are constantly recording but on a loop of 2 minutes (buffering) of video only (not audio) and at the end of that 2 minutes that information is lost and recorded over. When an officer activates the camera either manually or by turning on lights/siren on the car the device stores the last 2 minutes of video (again no audio) and then actively captures and stores the video AND audio since being activated. This is deliberate as it allows investigators to see what occurred leading up to an incident albeit without the audio.
LAPD uses BWC with the exact same features and they have on their YouTube channel critical incident reports where they go into detail about how the camera works and what it does and does not catch. Some departments also link the camera to a body alarm (like on the radio) and if the officer hits that it also captures the 2 minute buffer and records.
So bottom line -- yes the camera is "on" the entire time and constantly catching things in a 2 minute loop but until YOU activate the camera it does not permanently store that video.
Keep doing police work see where that gets you!!
5/18/2019 08:49:00 AM
Lol, you obviously don’t know how these things work...there will still be no audio....
This department is doomed. You have 2 year wonders working foot posts on days that have no idea how to write paper SL is grooming Failures 2 minutes 4 minutes it will embarrass this department
........So bottom line -- yes the camera is "on" the entire time and constantly catching things in a 2 minute loop but until YOU activate the camera it does not permanently store that video.
5/18/2019 08:14:00 PM
So:
1. La La land = democrats dictate.
2. La La land + same BWC devices = democrats still dictate.
3. Chitown = democrats dicktate.
4. Chitown + same BWC as La La land = democrats still dicktate.
Plus, (per your specs):
1. Non triggered video output to "buffer" digital storage circuit defined by instruction set = write data video output, duration of 120 seconds, then repeat + defined write begin location as same, UNLESS....
2. Triggered: go to instruction set which is defined as: write video + audio output AND save, until triggered to return to "standby/buffered" instruction set.
Q: Are these two functions hardware defined or software defined?
Thus: If hardware defined, aka, seperate hardware for "standby/buffering" of video digital data output function and for triggered video + audio digital output "saving", then the result will be ONLY those 120 seconds of video data, prior to triggered switch from "standby/buffering" function to all video + audio digital data output to "saved" storage device PLUS all video/audio data outputted to "saved" storage device, until BWC returned to "standby/buffering" state.
However: If software defined, no such certainty can be relied upon, as hardware function is shared by both instruction sets. Aka, software can render false the assurance of the "only" assertion.
Q: Can democrats be trusted to not tell lies?
Man,are they still carving up steering wheels?I always assumed it was some form of undiagnosed/untreated mental illness.I've seen them in multiple districts all over the city.Fromm tho 80's until I retired.Nice to know that insanity is still festering.

So what happens when you take a shit or piss and turn on your camera with in 1:30?!?
Anyone who thinks this is designed to our benifit in order to get a better picture of our encounters specifically officer involved shootings is navive as hell. They’re obvious looking at more and deeper ways to probe into how we conduct our business, relentlessly further pushing the police reform agenda. Please stop making excuses and realize the obvious: everything is falling on our shoulders. We are expecte to change not the criminals. We have an impotent union unwilling to put up a decent fight for us. It is hard to imagine that we can become even more reactive force than what we have become in the last 5 years. The truth and reality is that any person that has an encounter with the police while armed should never flail away erratically and pose a threat to the police called there to provide service. Just because you’re a barber, doesn’t excuse you from breaking the law and carrying a piece illegally. And putting officers in a state of confusion and threat. We are not fuckinh robots. We cannot automatically cue up a recording device perfectly every time a life threatening situation is put in front of us where every split second counts. If you’re the type of officer who’d rather push a button on a bwc so that you do not deviate dept policy instead of first securing a safe tactical position, then you’re a dumbass. I’m sure Eddie will be at your funeral preaching to the cameras how you were a hero doing your job. Fuck that I’d rather go home to my family at the end of the day. So I guess the criminals and bullshit will have an extra 2 minutes to get away or whatever. Since I have to slow things down even further to make sure I get there safely and sound and obey all traffic signals. Regardless of Shots fired, or person with a gun or person shot or what have you.
Give them what they want
Everyone should activate their cameras as soon as they leave the station to record their whole shift minus walking around in the station or bathrooms breaks and lunch. This way the storage space balloons along with the cost of storing them.
The reason why buffer time is increased
What did I miss with US99??
"...I have a little more than three years on..."
Still a rookie.
"...I'll just leave mine on all the time and sing the soundtrack to Cats..." I
Hermano!!!!
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
"...Mr. Grabby Hands in 019..." I
Please. Please tell me where I can find him.
I have to sit down now. I think I am getting a case of the vapors.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!

A camera has unfounded 4 of the last CR’s I’ve investigated
Anybody know when i will receive training on my brand new samsung?
I would use it but its so fancy and shiny like a brand new black berry.
When are we going to install cameras in Chicago public schools. I believe it would assist the teachers in controlling the chaos in some of these classrooms. We should also give all teachers and school administrators body cameras so they can be activated when they face an unruly student. We need cameras in every classroom and body cameras on the teachers. Tax payers should demand this level of accountability and transparency from their schools.

On the other hand, maybe it'll catch the asshole who keeps carving up the steering wheel in our pool rides.

Steering wheels matter...

A few years back, Ford was doing a recall of some of their steering wheels, do to them falling apart. They probably paid the city to repair them, and we know the end to that story.....
To the officer who is disgusted by the filth in the squad cars. Look no further that the no brain idiots who throw their trash all over the station parking lots. It's disgraceful. These are the same hypocrites who write ANOV's for littering. People, it's not acceptable to empty your trash on the ground when your tour is over. In fact, what you are doing is illegal (what you didn't realize that?) and you should be ticketed and Sparred. It just shows you who this department is hiring these days.
11:36PM......
Citizens?
Members of the local populace is a more accurate term.
mental midgets have been carving out steering wheels since the 70's

There already is cameras in public schools...we view them everyday in SDSC rooms
Man,are they still carving up steering wheels?I always assumed it was some form of undiagnosed/untreated mental illness.I've seen them in multiple districts all over the city.Fromm tho 80's until I retired.Nice to know that insanity is still festering.

Fuck yeah, they like picking at the PDT keys too until they fall off. Probably the same person who blows their piece of shit knows and puts the tissue in the door handle so you can touch it too.
Once again I wish to thank Dean Angelo who stood at the FOP podium and told us, “The cameras are a good thing”.
You can also thank him for:
Stealing a free car.
Fucking recruits out of duty availability for 42 months
Negotiating for police cars in contract.
Rehiring shitty attorneys who steal and kickback.
Reinstating Harold Brown into FOP after he was kicked out for malfeasance.
I can go on, but you get the idea.
If it's not on cam, didn't happen... amirite guys!?
but seriously, I get it...
For you northern folk, storage and upload/download time, is that OT if you're putting it on the server at end of shift? That's what we do downstate, it's on the server and ready to go if needed.. though now they're bitching about the OT requests due to the time it takes to download every cam.
I've had more coworkers cleared from bullshit and actual prosecutions with the cams, so I'm fan. Hell, give me one of those 360 google car mounted cams too while you're at it!!

Serious question.
When you are able to unfound the complaint based on video how do the "complainants" act?

Thanks for your input Jag. The complaint had to be notified of the outcome.

Before you get all salty there oblivious one, how do you think the complainant finds out it's unfounded? You don't really think the sergeant/investigator calls them up or tells them in person, do you? If you're the police, you should probably familiarize yourself with the investigative process. Unfounding it just ends one phase and starts the command review.
