risen when it saw. ready the mind and the music. going to open 1st 12019 from september 6th to september 29th. hardly a shift goes by without a physical assault. police officers are experiencing violence more and more often. now some german states are hoping body cams may help deescalate that trend worn on the uniforms the cameras record the encounter and may discourage potential attackers. that's the idea anyway.
8:17 pm
minds the state capitol of a violent. giving shias and stephon male are going on t.v. the 2 officers carry a new weapon in the fight against the increasing violence and decreasing respect from the public body cams. the primary aim is our own safety and other words we wear the body cam as a preventative measure. we always carry them and we turn them on in dangerous and tense situations to try to influence the behavior of the people waiting. almost every team is equipped with the tiny cameras when they go out on patrol. the days 1st call involves bodily injury special forces are already at the scene of

the suspect is known to the police as a hooligan with a record of bodily harm forging checks narcotics possession and resisting police officers this time the suspect is accused of beating a homeless person police officer saw him do it the suspect claims to have been defending himself after a provocation it's his 2nd encounter with the police in one day but he backs down the officers never even turned on the body count the polls. it's a busy day in minds the weather is good the home team has just won an important soccer match the party mood and alcohol increase the danger that the police will experience violence. soon in mind says pedestrian mall stephan male and gavin she has a call to take down a charge of verbal abuse the accuser is the same hole again from before. you can
8:19 pm
definitely abuse me she said i was a what did she say a weirdo and her boyfriend said you nazi buzz off you with the red monster lives right well behaved yourself and stay close to me that's a nonsense you come back with me and remain standing here in front of the ritz ordered by your followers didn't. even with prior convictions for bodily harm and resisting the police the man feels they're treating him unfairly it was up to him go i heard what was said and i saw what happened at the station and obviously things ongoing very well in town today. you take a step back. and then we can talk bunch absorbed on the move in. but the hooligan appears to have very little respect for officer stefan male young pauses the guy in full ready acknowledged what was sent. so everything's in order now isn't this link 09 i was in it. so now we're here to take down your complaint. you take
8:20 pm
a step back i don't come any closer. than you're on camera as of now. stefan mail turns on the body cam he's required to inform the citizens virtually once again of the video recording. a sickly what happened was that this person was getting relatively aggressive. in my direction in particular so i decided to turn on the body cam for reasons of my own personal safety. he was getting too close to me and i wanted to prevent that i was hoping that he'd moderate his behavior and let the situation deescalate a little. and that's just the way it seems to have worked. managed organize and commented. after the initial year long test phase the officers in mines have had overall positive experiences with body cams they do seem to help diminish a general lack of respect. for often you have
8:21 pm
a situation where people see how far they can go. and also i think they can handle a police officer a bit differently than they would otherwise in situations like that it's important to nip that in the bud and take direct action and say ok up to this point and no further. it's the c.n.n. money spider. when the police go off duty they hand the recorded video footage to their superior officer he has special software allowing him alone to copy save or delete the videos. where is your idea your marco and mr marco have you got a last name the body can records both images and sound. i'm not at all happy that you're here ruining the mood. now i've got the camera turned on because of the color saying you're aggressive i'm not why you yelling here i'm not yelling at all now i'm going to search for your id papers no i don't have any idea. are you deaf
8:22 pm
you dumb pig. along with discouraging abuse the body cams can provide conclusive documentary evidence of crimes even of crimes the police officers themselves have committed so the body cams not only protect the interests of the police but of the citizens they encounter. since their introduction violence against police officers has dropped by nearly 50 percent in mine but some criminal charges are still filed the document extreme hostility towards the police. used behaved extremely aggressively threatening to attack the officers after he's released he spat on an officer and insulted all officers present calling them sons of bitches saying bang your mothers on your graves. so he is remanded to the custody of police station one he's aged 16 to be picked up at the station later by his parents. and the officers
8:23 pm
were only trying to stop a brawl. in another case from 2 days ago the subjects' began resisting a female suspect it one officers arm and another's face and struck another in the chest to restore control over the situation at least 2 other subjects had to be pinned to the ground and restrained to fix it and getting actually ash can only speculate as to why disrespect resistance and abuse have generally increased. for one i'm sure something is lacking in their upbringing their parents may be unable to handle things these days and the courts have so my. to do that many cases aren't processed completely. british budget ben cohen want the one by get when things bother me personally in court i have to put on the teflon and just take the abuse as a police officer. study then you wonder if any judge realizes what the current situation is really like a communist and socialist actually that goes on. shortly afterwards the officers
8:24 pm
are back on the beat in downtown minds when they drive past 2 men one of them gives them the finger in germany it is a vehicle to insult an officer. we're running an identity check because he's flipped as the middle finger so we're checking him out and you can't do that is not allowed you know if you've had even a minimal are bringing you want to know that this kind of thing isn't proper. right off knows it was not good for these officers in line has been crossed. when can you explain to me why you did that. the brothers have come to minds from switzerland to party. do you give officers in switzerland the finger as well and how do they react to they like it when they discovered the officers ordered them to leave they have to vacate the area. with disrespect and violence directed at the police has soared to magically in recent years. 35 year old stefan male has also had his share
8:25 pm
of these experiences while on the beat at this site he once had to handcuff a teenager who was becoming extremely aggressive. and was clear just as i was giving him instructions he turned around and spat in my face and. you can feel this incredible rage at that moment which of course causes a really strong discussed. spitting in someone's face as many fellow officers confirm it is what provokes you and gets you worked up inside most of all. it's often that no amount of training can prepare a police officer for something like that. that have been there i yelled at him that way i got rid of lots of rage and emotion and that moment your human side really comes out. and it doesn't matter whatever you want to round his thinking and seeing for a moment your human self comes out and you can't control it. but ok you're not just
8:26 pm
a police officer that functions of the push of a button no matter want. makes totally correct and emotion free decisions this to go on and what's on top on a night shift stephon mail and gavin shares have to check out a group of teens. my list everyone staying here i'll be checking everyone's id. ok you stay right there you come down over going to have to cough yes everyone color here. i lie the war over there. all the young men between the ages of 18 and 23 have no intention of letting the officers see their i.d.'s like that they stall and provoke every way they can stones edition you stand over there. do i have to raise my voice again this is not that's a provocation when i tell you to stand there 5 times and you just don't do it. here
8:27 pm
have the officers tried deescalation tactics as long as they can without a body cam. almost as how this understood you can't let a situation get out of control you have to show people their limits and they've reached the point where we're not going to take any more. than don't make a fallacy i want to go home what are you doing there you're sleeping in a samsonite why am i sleeping there when an alcohol test on me 1st i have to call your mother call her i didn't do anything you should run an alcohol test this i know what you're doing you're grabbing my throat yes i'm backing un that's why buckle me here i want to go home you can't do that there. shortly after the officers are called to take charge of the man he was caught trying to get away the man is aggressive so the body count is switched on. now listen i'm turning the camera on. everything you say now will be recorded you stay seated
8:28 pm
