The most controversial piece of the Assembly's request: a policy to automatically release recordings from police shootings.
A person holds a sign that reads “APD body cameras now” in bold letters at a rally for justice for Bishar Hassan on April 1, 2022, in Anchorage. Hassan was shot and killed by Anchorage Police Department officers three years ago nearby, after he pulled out a BB gun. Two: Community outreach and education about the cameras.
The third ask was controversial. Assembly Member Zac Johnson, a former state trooper, said he’s concerned it sends the message that the Assembly doesn’t trust the police. The Assembly had originally considered ordering the changes, but that would further complicate the union bargaining process. So the Assembly ratcheted back its measure to what’s essentially a list of recommendations.
