Abstract

Deux ans après la mise en place du dispositif bodycam dans la zone de police de Liège et un an après la première évaluation, l’heure est au bilan. Pour ce faire, il a été demandé à tous les policiers utilisateurs de bodycam de la zone de répondre à un questionnaire quantitatif. Il en ressort principalement que le niveau de satisfaction moyen des policiers envers le dispositif bodycam a diminué depuis l’année précédente. En lien avec cela, la crainte des policiers envers l’utilisation de l’outil les incitant à ne pas activer leur caméra a fortement augmenté. Ces deux résultats, entre autres, semblent pouvoir s’expliquer en partie par une fuite d’images bodycams dans la presse concernant des bavures policières. Des problèmes d’ergonomie ont également été relevés comme des problèmes de batterie, des décrochages et des activations involontaires. Du côté des résultats positifs, nous pouvons citer les objectifs de la zone de police de Liège qui semblent avoir été judicieusement choisis. La formation bodycam ressort également de cette étude avec une note très positive même si cela peut être nuancé par un manque de réflexe vis-à-vis de l’activation de la caméra chez de nombreux policiers. La conclusion majeure de cette étude est que l’accent doit être mis sur la résolution des soucis ergonomiques ainsi que sur la communication interne des affaires dans lesquelles les bodycams sont venues en aide aux policiers afin de rehausser le niveau de confiance en cet outil ou en tout cas, de diminuer la crainte de l’utiliser. Two years after the introduction of the body-worn cameras system in the Liège police area and one year after the first evaluation, it's time to take stock. To do this, all the body-worn cameras users of the Liège police area were asked to complete a quantitative survey. The results show that the average level of satisfaction among police officers with the body-worn camera system has fallen since the previous year, and is now below average. Linked to this, the fact that police officers fear of using the tool, which encourages them not to activate their camera, has risen sharply. These two results, among others, seem to be partly explained by leaks of body-worn camera images to the press concerning police blunders. Ergonomic problems were also noted, such as battery problems, stalls and involuntary activations. On the positive side, we can cite the objectives of the Liège police area, which seem to have been judiciously chosen. Body-worn camera training also came out very positively in this study, although this may be qualified by the lack of reflexes on the part of many police officers when it comes to activating the camera. The main conclusion of this study is that the emphasis must be placed on resolving ergonomic problems and on internal communication about cases in which body-worn camera have been used to assist police officers, in order to increase the level of confidence in this tool or, at any rate, to reduce fear of using it.

Abstract

An evidence-based roadmap for how the American criminal justice system can be reformedThis important volume brings together today's leading criminal justice scholars and practitioners to offer a roadmap for those who want to change the face of the American criminal justice system. This collection of essays addresses thirteen significant issues in justice reform, starting from a suspect's first interaction with the police and continuing to gun violence, prosecutorial innovation, sentencing reform, eliminating bail, recidivism and re-entry, collateral consequences of crime, and eliminating false convictions. A common theme emerges in this volume: the American criminal justice system is riddled with weaknesses that cause harm and require greater accountability. Each chapter is both educational and prescriptive, helping readers to understand the problems that plague the criminal justice system, how those problems can be addressed, and who should take responsibility for them. Part scholarly research, part account of the justice system's workings and failings, and part agenda for action, Transforming Criminal Justice aims to educate and move readers to effect change.
