The 18 cameras are being supplied by Taser international to SJPD at no cost. Eventually the equipment could cost $1700 per officer with a $99 per month fee.
The SJPD recently paid $97,500 to settle a 2006 police brutality case.
They force is also under fire for a November phone video of the beating of a San Jose State University student. An enhanced version of this video seems to show the student being compliant while officers continue to strike him.
