(1st UPDATE) The cop wearing the body cam says he forgot to turn it on, according to the Navotas police chief. The PNP deployed body cams in 2021 to make operations transparent.

“It turns out that the police officer who was wearing the body cam didn’t turn it on during the operation. That’s why I am also ordering an investigation on him.” Jemboy Baltazar, mistaken for a suspect, was shot dead on August 2 after jumping off a boat in Barangay NBBS Kaunlaran.
