The measure, which already has cleared the House, needs approval of the full Senate.
PHOENIX — In the age of the videotaped police killings of George Floyd and Eric Garner, when it comes to recording law enforcement activity, how close is too close?
"It was in response to news reports of groups, organized groups, some were critical of police, responding to police calls and, while the police were taking enforcement action, getting really close, within 1 or 2 feet,'' he told committee members. And sometimes, Kavanagh said, they even would get right behind the police officer.
That distance requirement would not apply to indoor situations where the person with the camera or cellphone is in an adjacent room or area. More recently was the 2020 death of George Floyd, arrested by Minneapolis police on suspicion of passing a counterfeit $20 bill. The four officers involved were fired the following day after videos taken by witnesses showed Derek Chauvin kneeling on Floyd's neck for more than nine minutes.
