A forensic pathologist's view on the usage of the Taser? Axon? Flex? camera on-site and during autopsy

摘要

The Axon? Flex? camera was developed by Taser? to allow US federal, state and local law enforcement agencies to capture events live and to store, manage, share and analyze the video. Filming what the officer sees is claimed to help resolving false claims [1]. The Camera itself can be easily mounted on any kind of eyewear, cap, collar or epaulet. We wanted to see if the Axon? Flex? camera helps the forensic pathologists (I) on a potential crime scene to document the exact finding of a body and its location and (II) during autopsy transmitting what is seen by the forensic pathologists via live stream to a screen for teaching reasons.
