Border Czar: ICE to Roll Out Body Cameras for Officers 'as Soon as Possible'
What to Know
- White House border czar Tom Homan said ICE plans to deploy body cameras to officers "as soon as possible," with instructors currently being trained and equipment already purchased.
- Homan said at least one officer involved in ICE vehicle stops must wear a functioning body camera that records the entire encounter, following scrutiny over enforcement operations and recent fatal shootings involving agents.
- The rollout has been slowed by training needs, staffing requirements, video-storage preparations and anticipated FOIA requests, while Homan said the FBI will continue leading investigations into assaults on ICE officers.
