First hour: RPD Chief Ciminelli on police body cameras
Second hour: Monroe County Clerk Adam Bello on zombie properties
Rochester police are getting ready to use body cameras. How will they work? The cameras will be operational in July, and we'll talk to Chief Michael Ciminelli and Captain Kevin Costello about how the BWC project is laid out. (BWC is the city's shorthand for "Body Worn Cameras.") We'll take listener questions about the approach, when the cameras will be turned on and off, when the public will be allowed to see pieces of video, and more. Our guests:
- Chief Michael Ciminelli
- Captain Kevin Costello
Then, new Monroe County Clerk Adam Bello has made the fight against zombie properties a priority. Bello recently convened a vacant and abandoned property task force to address the issue, which is a problem in Rochester. So who should be responsible for keeping a property in decent condition? What changes has Bello advocated? Our guests:
- Adam Bello, Monroe County Clerk
- Rebecca Caico, Empire Justice Center
