Wearing "google glasses" might not make a whole lot of difference. It presupposes that the images and sounds captured by the camera will have enough fidelity to capture the details which actually matter and that's not a given even under ideal circumstances. Finally although a murder case would certainly get scrutiny, it would be hard to get a cop to even watch a video of a run-of-the-mill crime. Cyclists have been wearing video cams for years and there have been very very few cases of action being taken against motorists even when the cameras capture egregious behavior. There is no reason to think that a different maginalized group such as young black males will fare better because of google glass.

Why does anyone invest in security cameras then? What would be the point? Every street corner in NYC has one, buildings, and now peoples homes. Without video the Boston bombers would not have been caught as well. Video has a place in the court room and gives law enforcement more information about what happened.
