AI Summary
This bill amends the South Carolina Code of Laws to allow persons who are subjects of data recorded by law enforcement body-worn cameras to request and receive that recorded data, without having to pursue actions under the rules of criminal or civil procedure or obtain a court order. Previously, only certain entities like law enforcement agencies and prosecutors could request and receive this body-camera data. This change provides more direct access to the recorded data for individuals who are captured in it.
