The Missouri police department that killed an unarmed teen last month is now equipped with body cameras so that officers may record their daily patrols.

The Ferguson Police Department was gifted 50 cameras, and officers on the street began wearing them on their uniforms over the Labor Day weekend.

“They are really enjoying them,” Chief Tom Jackson told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “They are trying to get used to using them.”

The devices, which record video and audio, were donated by Safety Visions and Digital Ally two weeks ago.

On August 9, Officer Darren Wilson shot 18-year-old Michael Brown at least six times, sparking protests that are ongoing. Had the shooting been taped, police and the community might better understand what happened between Brown and Wilson. In the wake of Brown's death, police departments, politicians, and even the public are clamoring for police to wear body cams.

More than 153,000 have signed a petition requiring police to wear body cams in a law dubbed "Mike Brown Law." One senator has proposed requiring US police agencies to wear body cams in order for them to be eligible for federal funding. It is not known how many police departments already employ body cameras, but there are relatively few.
