Prosecutor FOIA Bill

Summary

The bill changes the state public‑records law so that files kept by the Office of the Prosecuting Attorney are treated like other law‑enforcement records and are not subject to FOIA requests. As a result, citizens cannot obtain those records through the usual open‑records process. The change is meant to protect investigative information and clarify the prosecutor’s status as a non‑custodian of public records.
