新泽西州议会审议新法案：拟限制公众调取警方执法记录仪视频
新泽西州议会正在审议一项新法案（A-5631），拟限制公众获取警方执法记录仪（body-worn camera）视频的渠道。法案由众议员 Simmons 提出，已提交州众议院公共安全与防备委员会审议。
据《泽西辩护者报》（Jersey Vindicator）10月18日报道，支持者认为，执法记录仪视频常涉及被逮捕者的隐私，应当在公开透明与个人尊严之间取得平衡；反对者则担心此举会削弱公众监督警务执法的能力。类似立法以往会期也曾提出——2023年12月，共和党州参议员 Anthony Bucco 曾提出限制公布逮捕执法记录仪画面的法案，当时开放政府倡导者提出，对人脸等可识别特征进行模糊处理是更温和的折中方案。如获通过，新泽西将成为美国少数对执法记录仪视频公开设限的州之一。（GSM 据 Jersey Vindicator 报道）
New Jersey Bill Would Restrict Public Access to Police Bodycam Video
New Jersey lawmakers are considering a new bill, A-5631, sponsored by Assemblywoman Simmons, that would restrict public access to police body-worn camera video. The measure has been referred to the Assembly Public Safety and Preparedness Committee.
Supporters say bodycam footage often implicates the privacy of arrested individuals and that transparency must be balanced against personal dignity; opponents warn the bill would weaken public oversight of policing, the Jersey Vindicator reported on Oct. 18. Similar legislation surfaced in earlier sessions — in December 2023, Republican state Sen. Anthony Bucco proposed limiting release of arrest bodycam footage, and open-government advocates argued that blurring faces and other identifying features was a more moderate compromise. If enacted, New Jersey would become one of the few states limiting bodycam video disclosure. (GSM, via the Jersey Vindicator)
