LITH Police To Get More Body, In-Car Cameras

LAKE IN THE HILLS, IL — The Lake in the Hills Police Department plans to buy more police car cameras and body cameras, Shaw Media is reporting. Last week, the Lake in the Hills Village approved $102,782 in spending for the in-car cameras and body cameras.

"We already purchased 20 body cameras last year, and this year we are requesting 20 more to complete the project," said Lake in the Hills Police Chief Mary Frake. "We started this processquite a while ago.

"The problems (with Pro-Vision) were difficulty in locating the videos once they were uploaded, and then to have some manual intervention to go find the videos. That is something we do not want to do with recordings and transparency. And at the end of the day, that is what our focus is, and that is why we moved to a system that has proven to be working."
