An act relating to criminal justice agency protocols for an officer-involved shooting

Summary

The bill lets the Vermont Attorney General start an investigation when a police officer draws a gun while performing official duties, and it requires that investigation to be finished within 90 days unless several people were shot or injured. The Attorney General must issue a written report to the officer and the agency, and adopt rules covering how the investigations are run, timelines, and public access. It aims to make officer‑involved shooting reviews more consistent and transparent.
