Bill > S2279

This bill allows non-sworn public safety officers and security guards at private colleges and universities to detain individuals for a maximum of 30 minutes if they have reasonable grounds to believe the person has committed a criminal offense within the campus's jurisdiction. These officers must immediately call for assistance from state or local police and cannot hold someone longer than necessary while waiting for that assistance. The bill also mandates that these campus security personnel receive training in the proper use of restraint devices and adhere to recognized use-of-force policies, and it takes effect immediately upon passage.
