科罗拉多州一名青少年在2023年警方追捕中死亡, 引发了新责任法下的身体摄像头透明度的法律斗争. A Colorado teen's 2023 death in a police chase sparked a legal fight over body cam transparency under a new accountability law.

科罗拉多州莱克伍德发生的一起警察枪击案, 17岁的玛丽安娜·马丁内斯在抢劫追捕中被杀, 考验了科罗拉多州2020年加强执法诚信法案, 该法案要求在不良行为投诉后21天内公布未经编辑的身体摄像头录像. A 2023 police shooting in Lakewood, Colorado, where 17-year-old Mariana Martinez was killed during a robbery pursuit, tested Colorado’s 2020 Enhance Law Enforcement Integrity Act, which mandates public release of unedited body camera footage within 21 days of a misconduct complaint. 警方最初的说法存在矛盾，市政府以青少年隐私法为由，将视频扣留超过两年，促使斯克里普斯新闻展开法律诉讼。 Initial police accounts conflicted, and the city withheld the video for over two years citing juvenile privacy laws, prompting a legal battle by Scripps News. 在诉讼和上诉后发布的视频显示，警员追赶马丁内斯，试图使用电击枪，并在她持枪指着他们后开了多枪。 The footage, released after a lawsuit and appeal, showed officers chasing Martinez, attempting a taser, and firing multiple shots after she pointed a gun at them. 地区检察官小组和警察局长的内部审查都认为警官的行动是正当的,没有提出指控,警官们受到赞扬。 Both the district attorney’s team and the police chief’s internal review found the officers’ actions justified, no charges were filed, and the officers were commended. 案件突显了透明度和隐私之间的紧张关系,同时表明法律有意通过及时获得原始录像来确保问责制。 The case highlighted tensions between transparency and privacy while demonstrating the law’s intent to ensure accountability through timely access to raw footage.
