Fairfield Police Study Effectiveness Of Body Cameras

As the Fairfield Police Department begins testing the use of body cameras for its officers , officials are looking at the effectiveness of implementing the new technology in town. "Good police work will benefit from such recordings and improper police work will be discovered before it becomes a community-wide issue," lawyer Eric Daigle wrote in a white-page report distributed to Fairfield Police on Friday, Dec. 19. Much of the evidence used to support that opinion is based on the success of police cruiser dash cameras, which Deputy Police Chief Christopher Lyddy says the department has seen first-hand on a unit received as a part of a DUI state grant six years ago.
