What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill creates a grant program administered by the Department of Justice for law enforcement agencies to incorporate a prearrest risk assessment tool into their arrest practices. Under the bill, in order to receive a grant, a law enforcement agency must identify an evidence-based risk assessment tool that its law enforcement officers will use to determine whether a person should be arrested for a crime.
A law enforcement agency that receives a grant will provide information to DOJ regarding the use of the evidence-based risk assessment tool, including the number of persons screened, the number of persons arrested after screening, and the number of persons not arrested after screening. DOJ must analyze the data submitted each year and prepare a progress report that evaluates the effectiveness of the program.

Every five years, DOJ must submit a report summarizing the grant program and its effects to the legislature.
