First reading: referred to Committee on Courts and Criminal Code
Summary
The bill adds a new Indiana Code section that bars the exclusion of otherwise admissible evidence simply because it was obtained in violation of the U.S. or Indiana Constitution, except when the evidence results from deliberate, reckless, grossly negligent, or systemic police misconduct, or when a clear U.S. Supreme Court holding requires exclusion. It also lets the state appeal a suppression order directly to the Indiana Supreme Court, staying the trial while the appeal is decided. The measure seeks to limit the use of the exclusionary rule in Indiana criminal prosecutions.
