A Message From Chief Paul

The purpose of this website is to educate members of the community about BWCs, provide information specific to the BRPD BWC program, and to learn from community members how we can better serve Baton Rouge. 

The use of body worn cameras is expected to promote officer safety, strengthen police accountability, enhance operational transparency, provide for more effective prosecution, and improve protection against false allegations of excessive use of force, misconduct, or racial profiling while protecting civil liberties and privacy interests.
