Dear Anonymous,
Due to N.J.S.A. 40A:14-118.5 per your subject OPRA request; in a plain reading of subsection 1. states that where a BWC recording has "evidentiary or exculpatory value," it is exempt from "public inspection". In the previous email, the footage has been provided to you but it has been redacted to maintain the evidentiary/exculpatory value.
Thank you, Sue Minock
