Bill Summary:
In California, it is not currently legally required for law enforcement agencies to make it a public record when an officer has a history of excessive, but non-deadly, force or a history of engaging in racist or biased actions. SB 16 would provide access to records of law enforcement officers who have engaged in racist or biased behavior, regularly used excessive force, or have a history of unlawful arrests or searches. SB 16 also includes provisions to ensure that officers with a history of misconduct can’t just quit their jobs, keep their records secret, and move on to another jurisdiction with their past actions not disclosed.
