247 A confidential study by the Military Police of São Paulo concluded that the use of cameras installed in military police officers’ uniforms led to a 24% increase in weapons seized and a 102% increase in domestic violence cases a 78% increase in drug possession cases, the state of S. Paulo reports.
The facts call into question one of the campaign promises made by Governorelect Tarcísio de Freitas (Republican), who has criticized the cameras. During the election campaign in Jovem Pan, for example, Bolsonarista said that the equipment “disadvantages” police officers and even challenged: “Take out the camera thing to see if it doesn’t get better right away”.
However, the study commissioned by the Prime Minister’s Command at the Center for Applied Science in Public Security of the Getulio Vargas Foundation (FGV) confirms that the cameras have increased the effectiveness of the police in fighting female aggressors and other criminals.
“Incidents that used to be underreported are now being registered by the police. It’s as if the company has adopted a zerotolerance policy on crime,” the report reads.
The future Secretary of State for Public Safety of São Paulo, the reelected federal MP and captain Guilherme Muraro Derrite (PL) is another critic of the cameras. According to him, the equipment would inhibit and embarrass the police in their work.
