To accomplish this, we used a 2 × 2 vignette where citizen race and object were manipulated to different conditions. Using a survey instrument sent to Amazon Mturk workers, several notable findings related to demographic and media perceptions were found regarding the public’s right to view the footage. White respondents were more likely to believe that the public should be able to view the footage involving the Black suspect holding a cellphone, whereas White respondents were less likely to believe that the public should be able to view the footage involving a Black suspect holding a handgun. Age was positively related to supporting increased communication from police for the scenario with a Black suspect with a cellphone,among several other significant relationships. As media hostility increased, respondents were less likely to support increased communication from the police. Perceptions of media hostility consistently influenced respondent perceptions of the public’s right to view BWC footage and police communication across all manipulations.

Metropolitan Police Service 20/1/2023 Report Police investigating rape claims in England believe victim-blaming myths, study finds Government-funded researchers have uncovered “striking” evidence that rape myths – such as the belief that a woman’s behaviour plays a part in her rape – are believed by police officers investigating allegations of the crime. A study of specialist rape and sexual offences officers in one large police force gives a rare snapshot into attitudes which researchers warn could be contributing to the 1.6% charge rate in rape cases in England and Wales. One senior officer, who expressed concern at the existence of rape myths in their force, told academics: “We massively pre-judge the credibility of the victim. We investigate the victim more than the offence itself.” The Guardian 20/1/2023 News B.C. police wage recruitment battle as future of Surrey force hangs in the balance CANADA: A large billboard on Surrey's border has become emblematic of a quiet battle going on across the Lower Mainland as police forces compete to attract the next generation of boots on the ground Global News (Canada) 20/1/2023 News Carnarvon crime spike has leaders call for more support for WA police AUSTRALIA: Carnarvon community leaders are concerned an extra police presence in the remote WA town since December won't reduce the region's crime rate in the long term.
