Title
Law enforcement agencies, state or municipal, written standards and procedures for conducting internal investigations of law enforcement officers for administrative or disciplinary purposes, required, copies required to be provided to all law enforcement officers
Description

Currently, there is no statutory requirement that a state or municipal law enforcement agency adopt written procedures for conducting internal investigations of law enforcement officers for administrative or disciplinary purposes.

This bill would require every state and municipal law enforcement agency to adopt written and published procedures for conducting internal investigations of law enforcement officers for administrative or disciplinary purposes.

This bill would also require that every agency distribute a copy of the approved procedures to every law enforcement officer employed by that agency.
