UPDATE: Murfreesboro Police Officers will soon have Body Cameras

The Murfreesboro Police Department is outfitting their officers with body cameras, which will record video footage of arrests and law enforcement interactions with the public. Keep in mind, the police department has had in-car cameras since the late 1990’s, so the new body-cam’s will give authorities even more documentation that can be used in court. Chief Michael Bowen commented… Currently, the police department is in the midst of preparations to ensure the new body-cameras function correctly and that the video files are stored as needed. An exact timeline as to when every officer will have a body-camera has yet to be announced.
