What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, the Law Enforcement Standards Board may decertify law enforcement, tribal law enforcement, jail, or juvenile detention officers for a variety of reasons. This bill provides that the Law Enforcement Standards Board must decertify officers for those reasons, and adds the following to the list of reasons to decertify an officer: 1) violating a use of force policy to which the officer is subject, and 2) terminating employment while under investigation for committing an act of official misconduct. Officers decertified while under investigation for committing an act of official misconduct may not be recertified in the future unless the officer receives a waiver from the police commission or police and fire commission, if applicable, or the governing body, of the jurisdiction in which he or she seeks employment and corresponding recertification. The bill also requires that the board decertify officers within 30 days after the relevant event that is the cause for decertification.
