A North Carolina Law Will Soon Limit Who Can View Body-Camera Footage
Updated on September 26 at 3:15 p.m. ET Authorities in Charlotte, North Carolina, lifted a curfew after the third-straight peaceful day of demonstrations against the killing of Keith Lamont Scott, a black man shot last week by police. The marches have been calm since protesters won a victory over the weekend: the release of body-camera footage that showed Scott’s death. But it may be the last time this happens in North Carolina, because of a new law that takes effect October 1 that extends police control over the release of body-camera footage and severely restricts who can view it.
