Oklahoma Open Records Act; law enforcement records; arrest and incident reports; public inspection; effective date.

Summary

The bill amends the Oklahoma Open Records Act so police departments must make arrest and incident reports, plus related records such as radio logs and body‑camera footage, available for anyone to view or copy. It sets detailed rules for redacting sensitive information—like minors’ identities, graphic violence, or medical data—and permits release of withheld footage once investigations are concluded. The change is intended to boost transparency and public oversight of law‑enforcement actions.
