What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law requires an investigation following a death that involves a law

enforcement officer and outlines specific requirements of the investigation. Under

this bill, a death involving a correctional officer gives rise to the same investigation

requirements as a death involving a law enforcement officer.
