I have heard this, quoted from the linked article:

"The lawsuit comes as the Bernalillo County Sheriff's deputies who patrol the state's largest metro area in and around Albuquerque have been involved in nine shootings in a four-month period, spurring criticism from civil rights groups and activists.

Bernalillo County Sheriff Manuel Gonzales also has drawn criticism for saying that no one has provided him with data showing that body cameras on deputies make the community safer.

He said last month that he won't require his deputies to wear them because he said the media would use the footage to criticize the officers."
