...again why police are trained/paid to use physical force to restrain someone when need be.
Thanks. That's nice to know.

Nice catch...
A police officer in Tennessee literally pulled a distraught woman back from the brink the day after Christmas -- saving her life as she prepared to leap off a bridge ... and it was all caught on video.
Watch the clip ... the woman can be seen standing on the ledge of the Holston River Bridge in Knoxville, Tennessee. As Tennessee Highway Patrol and emergency responders stand by, the woman peers out onto the water, gathering herself to jump.
But in one heart-pounding moment, one of the officers lunges forward, grabs the woman by the waist and pulls her back to safety.

The police service in Edmonton is taking exception to the Crown making a plea arrangement to manslaughter to what should be a trial and conviction for 1st degree murder.
We need to see more of this - and in particular more shaming of the Crown for their poor practices in perpetrator accommodation...
"It is trite law that the Crown does not win or lose,” Hankewich concluded. “But what we expect from the Crown — what you and the public should expect — is that the Crown is a zealous advocate for justice. Unfortunately, so far, we have not seen that in this case.”

I think it is only certain segments of society that thinks BWCs are the be-all-and-end-all of accountability, but they are certainly a good step. Obviously, field-of-view is a limiting technological issue. When they should be turned on/off is a policy issue.2 March, 2026 report in the Guardian regarding body cameras,

My former service (OPP) I think is still rolling them out in some regions. It took them a long time to get the necessary funding. It goes much beyond the cameras themselves.
Getting the cameras is easy. But then you need the policy, you need practices that sync up with provincial and federal law, you need the data storage infrastructure, you need resources in place for vetting and disclosure… Costs add up quick.

I’ve been seeing body cam footage videos on my Facebook stream lately. The one thing I’m surprised is how many of the belligerents, when told they’re on video, continue to act like douchebags or accuse the cop of misconduct, when the video only shows misconduct by the suspect.

They will come in and complain- be shown the video where the whole conversation and actions are on view and continue their version of events.
