What we do not know
Carlin PD
- Whether the department holds a separate body camera policy that is not in the published manual.
- How long Carlin retains footage in practice, and under what schedule it is deleted.
- What happens when a resident asks for footage, and what it costs.
- Whether any other Nevada agency's policy would fare better, which cannot be answered while almost none of them are published.
What body cameras are
A camera worn by an officer, recording encounters with the public. What it captures, how long the footage is kept and who may watch it are set by department policy rather than by one statewide rule.
