国土安全部部长克里斯蒂·诺姆周一宣布,所有在明尼阿波利斯一线部署的国土安全部官员都将配备随身摄像头。
“我们立即开始向明尼阿波利斯所有一线特工部署随身摄像头,”诺姆在社交媒体帖子中写道。“一旦资金到位,随身摄像头项目将在全国范围内推广。我们将迅速为国土安全部(DHS)全国范围内的执法人员配备并部署随身摄像头。”
长期以来,支持和批评政府移民行动的人士一直呼吁国土安全部官员——包括移民和海关执法局(ICE)以及海关与边境保护局(CBP)的官员——佩戴随身摄像头。国土安全部官员有时会用个人设备拍摄与抗议者的紧张对峙场面。
其中最广为人知的案例是,一名开枪打死蕾妮·古德的官员用手机拍摄了这一事件。
1月底两名特工开枪打死亚历克斯·普雷蒂后,调查人员开始查看当天30多名特工佩戴的随身摄像头记录,以还原其死亡前的经过。

海关与边境保护局的内部调查在初步报告中指出(该报告包括对随身摄像头录像的审查),只有两名特工使用了自己的武器。
上周,CNN记者阿莱娜·特里尼追问白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特,为何在普雷蒂(一名ICU护士)被枪杀后,政府未强制国土安全部官员佩戴随身摄像头。
莱维特表示,相关讨论仍在进行中。“我会让他们(指国土安全部官员)和总统来做这个决定,”她补充道。
总统唐纳德·特朗普周一表示,他将把关于随身摄像头使用的决定交由诺姆负责。
“嗯,这不是我的决定。我会……我把这个决定权交给她,”特朗普总统说道。“它们通常对执法很有帮助,因为人们无法歪曲事实……但如果她想这么做,我支持她。”
诺姆宣布这一消息之际,恰逢参议院民主党人与特朗普达成协议,将国土安全部的资金临时延长两周,此前共和党人和民主党人就左翼要求限制ICE策略的谈判陷入僵局。
该资金法案已在参议院通过,现在压力转向众议院共和党人。
随着民主党继续提出改革或限制国土安全部移民官员策略的要求,一些共和党人——甚至是政府移民执法的坚定支持者——也表示支持强制佩戴随身摄像头。
“我个人对此没有异议,”共和党参议员、参议院国土安全委员会成员罗恩·约翰逊周日告诉CNN的达娜·巴什。
约翰逊表示,他反对民主党人的其他努力,包括在移民案件中强制要求司法令状。
“我们有数百万起案件积压,”他说。“所以要求司法令状是他们暗中削弱我们执行任何移民法律能力的手段。”
Homeland Security officers in Minneapolis will be issued body cameras, Noem says

All Homeland Security officers on the ground in Minneapolis will be issued body cameras, Secretary Kristi Noem announced Monday.
“Effective immediately we are deploying body cameras to every officer in the field in Minneapolis,” Noem wrote in a social media post. “As funding is available, the body camera program will be expanded nationwide. We will rapidly acquire and deploy body cameras to DHS law enforcement across the country.”
Advocates and critics of the administration’s immigration operations have long called for Department of Homeland Security officers — including from ICE and Customs and Border Protection — to wear body cameras. DHS officers themselves have resorted, at times, to filming tense interactions with protestors on their own personal devices.
One of the most well-known instances was when the officer who shot and killed Renee Good filmed the incident on his cellphone.
After two officers shot and killed Alex Pretti in late January, investigators began reviewing over 30 body cameras worn by officers that day to piece together what had taken place in the moments before his death.

Customs and Border Protection’s internal investigation found in it’s initial report, which included a review of the body worn camera footage, that only the two officers had fired their own weapons.
CNN’s Alayna Treene pressed White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt last week on why the administration had not required DHS officers to wear body cameras in the wake of the shooting of Pretti, an ICU nurse.
Leavitt said conversations were ongoing. “I’ll leave it to them and the president to make that decision,” she added.
President Donald Trump on Monday said he was leaving decisions regarding the use of body cameras to Noem.
“Well, it wasn’t my decision. I would have, you know — I leave it to her,” the president said. “They generally tend to be good for law enforcement, because people can’t lie about what’s happening … But if she wants to do that, I’m OK with it,” Trump said.
Noem’s announcement also comes after Senate Democrats and Trump brokered a deal to temporarily extend DHS funding for two weeks as Republicans and Democrats negotiations over demands on the left to rein in ICE tactics continue.
The funding bill has cleared the Senate, with pressure now on House Republicans.
As Democrats continue to outline their demands on reforming or curbing the tactics of DHS immigration officers, some Republicans — even staunch backers of the administration’s immigration enforcement — have voiced support for mandating body worn cameras.
“I don’t have a problem with that personally,” Republican Senator and member of the Senate’s homeland security committee Ron Johnson told CNN’s Dana Bash on Sunday.
Johnson said he opposes other efforts by Democrats, including to mandate judicial warrants in immigration cases.
“We have got millions of cases backlogged,” he said. “So demanding judicial warrants is their sneaky way of basically neutering our ability to enforce any immigration laws.”
