ICE's new body camera policy gives the agency director absolute discretion to withhold video of fatal shootings and other serious incidents unless release is deemed in the 'best interests of the agency.' Legal experts argue this undermines transparency, invites selective disclosure, and may obstruct civil rights litigation and FOIA requests. The rollout, funded by tens of millions in taxpayer dollars, follows multiple fatal shootings during the administration's immigration crackdown.
