This is incorrect as others pointed out. A phone is not a body cam.

They released the phone cam, which they used to try to justify his actions with. A body cam wouldn't have because it would've showed he was fucking hit and it would've shown him shooting Renee in the face to the world.

The reason they don't use body cams is because the unspoken word is, "show what you want people to see; throw the phone down when you don't want them to see it."

The entire point of a body cam is to always film.
