One of the larger data points is deep into this (very lengthy) story: an estimated 10% of stops that are mandated to be recorded (e.g. not conducted by officers in specialized teams that don't operate with cameras) were marked by officers as not having body camera footage. That doesn't include incidents – such as the story's main anecdote – in which officers claim there is footage even when there isn't, or much of it is missing. > CBS 2 obtained data on more than 340,000 of those stops between the start of 2018 — the first full year all patrol officers had body cameras — and June 30, 2020. > More than 62,000 stops during that period didn't have body camera video, the data showed. > About half of the interactions that weren’t recorded involved police officers who are not required by policy to wear body cameras, including those on specialized teams. > In order to find out how many stops were potential policy violations, CBS 2 isolated stops made by cops who would normally wear body cameras. It shows about 34,000 stops — roughly 10 percent — were made by officers not assigned to gang, gun or saturation teams.
