Washington, DC – Today, U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) Director
Ronald L. Davis signed the interim policy for the USMS to begin use of
body-worn cameras (BWC) in law enforcement operations as part of Phase
One of BWC implementation by U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) law
enforcement personnel. USMS is committed to transparency in its mission
to locate and apprehend fugitives wanted for the commission of violent
crimes in the nation’s communities. In its effort to enhance trust with
the public it serves every day, USMS has begun training deputy U.S.
