New North Carolina Law set to block release of police video footage

Police Department of the fatal encounter between officers and Keith Lamont Scott could be the last footage that North Carolina authorities will ever share with the public. Scott died September 20, 5 days since the shooting, and protesters are demanding the police to release the footage to the public. A new law that goes into effect on October 1st is set to block the public from having body cameras or dashboard cameras to give respect to the officers. I disagree with this law because I think it's also about respecting the public. With those recording that people use you can see many incidence that happen and can be shown to the public.
