Which policy is a policing reform example?

• A. Body cameras.
• B. Deregulating law enforcement.
• C. Building more prisons.
• D. Raising police salaries.

Answer: (A)

Policing reform centers on changing how policing is conducted to increase accountability, transparency, and community trust. Body cameras fit this goal well because they create an objective record of police interactions, deter inappropriate behavior, aid investigations, and provide evidence that can support accountability for both officers and the public. The other options don’t fit as policing reform measures: deregulating law enforcement would lessen oversight rather than promote reform; building more prisons addresses punishment and incarceration capacity rather than changes in policing practices; raising police salaries affects recruitment and morale but doesn’t alter policing policies or accountability mechanisms.
