Victim and Witness Privacy Amendments

Summary

The bill defines "nonpublic victim or witness data" and requires law‑enforcement agencies to keep that information private, using secure virtual rooms when possible. It lets a defendant’s attorney view or copy the data only after a court finds good cause, while protecting intimate images and limiting access for pro se defendants. The measure aims to balance privacy rights with a defendant’s right to a fair defense.
