Presents DHS's body camera requirement as a new, concrete policy change instituted in direct response to two fatal shootings by uncamera'd agents.
Every ICE arrest team will have at least one law enforcement officer equipped with a body-worn camera going forward, DHS said Tuesday, after two fatal shootings by agents who didn't have cameras.
Highlights a gap between DHS's earlier promise of body cameras and the reality that, months later, immigration agents involved in fatal shootings still were not equipped with them.
In recent days, federal immigration agents fatally shot two immigrant fathers. None of the federal officers involved were wearing body cameras, the agency said.
DHS made a statement regarding body cameras for immigration enforcement agents. Two fatal shootings involving federal immigration agents occurred, and in those incidents the officers involved were not wearing body cameras.
CBS News (left) frames the story as a forward-looking policy announcement, presenting DHS's pledge that every ICE arrest team will now include an agent with a body camera as a direct response to the shootings. NPR (center) frames the same underlying announcement as a broken or delayed promise, emphasizing that DHS had pledged body cameras months earlier and that the policy still had not been implemented at the time of the fatal shootings, casting doubt on DHS's follow-through.
