That’s the message from Sen. Eric Adams, D-Brooklyn, this week as he demonstrated a new device called the PistolCam – a 5-ounce camera he said would provide “a clearer picture of what officers encounter after they remove their guns from their holster.”
Adams, a former NYPD officer, wants officers to start using the guns in the wake of the Sean Bell shooting in New York City.
The camera would be used to clarify the sequence of events in a police-related shooting should the case go to court, Adams said.
Here’s Adams yesterday demonstrating the technology.
