Police Body Worn Camera Metadata

Detects metadata records from police body-worn camera (BWC) systems including activation timestamps, officer identification, incident cross-references, and footage catalogue entries. This pattern targets the metadata and logs, NOT the footage itself. BWC metadata reveals which officers attended which incidents, activation patterns, and evidence chain-of-custody details.

Confidence justification
High confidence: requires co-occurrence of BWC-specific metadata terminology with officer identification and incident reference numbers. Policy documents and tenders discuss BWC in general terms without activation logs or specific officer-incident linkages.
