Abstract

A video recording and law enforcement corroboration process. A video feed is established between a law enforcement officer and a perpetrator, initiated by either party. Participation by a corroborating third party is then invited and the video feed is shared, wherein an interaction between the law enforcement officer and the perpetrator is both documented and corroborated. The feed being recorded thereby forms a record which can be sent to a central processing unit, thereby forming an event record, wherein the event record can be stored and used in criminal proceedings as it relates to the perpetrator. Structurally, the system includes a video recording and law enforcement corroboration system, comprising a cap to be worn by a user; a clip strip mounted on the cap; a wireless camera accessory secured to the clip strip; and, a harness to be worn by the user for mounting additional wireless camera accessories.
