Several cities now require police officers to wear such cameras to increase transparency and accountability of law enforcement. Observers have noticed that both, police officers and citizens, tend to behave better when a camera is recording the incident. As documents of "the truth," police videos can be somewhat ambiguous. For example, the footage described above does not actually show Okeefe fleeing or shooting at Officer Fisher. One day before that incident, however, prosecutors did decide to pursue murder charges against two other Albuquerque police
