Chair Richard R. Buery Jr. raises potential privacy concerns regarding Campaign Zero's proposal for direct CCRB access to NYPD data, such as body camera footage.
Cassandra Ippaso responds by citing examples from Chicago, Seattle, and Washington D.C. where similar direct access exists.
She clarifies that internal access for investigation does not equate to public disclosure and is crucial for timely and independent oversight.

On information access, are there any privacy concerns around giving CCARB investigators direct access to body cam footage or other kind of data?
Cassandra Ippaso
2:04:22
Yeah.
2:04:23
That's a good question.
2:04:24
So, Seattle and Chicago are two examples that have, and Washington DC that have this this direct access that we're proposing.

Chicago, Seattle, and Washington DC.

Unfunded access to police records does not mean full public disclosure.
2:04:44
Chicago's COPA, for example, states very clearly that their investigates investigatory files and reports, while relying on access to relevant police records, will not be dived to any personal agency.

So, you know, that, both the CCRB and NYPD are both part of the city, and and and that does not mean, like, that that these records are gonna be public.

It's just that that CCRB is able to do their job with due diligence within the time frame that they need to do it.
