Bill Summary

Relative to authorizing the recording of conversations during certain investigations. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing state law to allow law enforcement officials to conduct one-party recordings of conversations with suspects during authorized investigations into crimes against a person or arson. The recording can take place in a police facility that has clear and conspicuous notices informing individuals that conversations may be recorded, and it can be done without providing additional notice after the suspect has been given their Miranda warnings.
