A Focus on Police Body-Worn Cameras

Michael Gennaco and Steve Connolly, OIR Group, Playa Del Rey, CA
Despite Governor Wolf signing Act 22 of 2017 which permitted use of police body-worn cameras
without violation of Pennsylvania's wiretapping law, installation and use by police officers has
not been universally adopted throughout the Commonwealth. With recent attention to law
enforcement reform, police body-worn cameras and oversight of their use (or lack thereof) will
likely receive higher public policy review and become ripe for challenges by criminal defense
attorneys. This webinar will provide criminal defense attorneys with a primer on the technical
aspects of how body-worn cameras work, their capabilities and limitations, and zoom in on
the best practices for activation, preservation, purging, officer training and access to footage.
Additionally, the discussion will focus on defense counsel's strategies and challenges to police
body-worn cameras including manipulation.

pandemic, provide voir dire guidance, and discuss the practical implications of jury selection
changes in response to the fear of disease spread. This webinar will also reinforce good voir dire

Lia Nower, JD, Ph.D., Center for Gambling Studies, Rutgers University, NJ
The rapid expansion of legalized gambling has all but ignored a growing but hidden consequence:
gambling disorder. Most people gamble for recreation only, but a proportion will develop an
addiction to gambling so severe they will experience bankruptcy, homelessness, job loss, and
