ICE will release body camera video only when seen in the agency's 'best interests,' policy says

ICE says it will finish equipping officers with body cameras by the end of September, but its policy leaves release of any footage, including from shootings, to the agency's own discretion: video will be released only when officials determine it is 'in the agency's best interests.' The rollout follows President Trump's January 2025 rescission of an earlier body-camera mandate and comes amid pressure from recent fatal ICE shootings, including in Texas and Minnesota.
