Release Information About Peace Officer Use of Force

Summary

The bill adds new definitions for a person killed by police force and their immediate family, then obligates law‑enforcement agencies to provide any body‑camera or dash‑camera recordings to the public upon request. It also forces agencies to identify and notify the deceased’s family within 24 hours and give them access to the recordings before they are made public. The goal is to increase transparency and trust after police use‑of‑force incidents that result in death.
