SB1781

Establishes the turquoise alert system for missing persons under 65 and mandates training for law enforcement.

Arizona SB1781 establishes the turquoise alert system to quickly respond to reports of missing persons under 65 years old. The Department of Public Safety will issue a turquoise alert if certain conditions are met, including the use of all local resources and belief that the missing person is in danger. The bill mandates comprehensive training for law enforcement personnel involved in missing person cases, focusing on turquoise alert procedures. It also requires collaboration among federal, state, tribal, county, and municipal law enforcement agencies to synchronize training and alert systems.
