HB3380

HB3380 regulates the use of body cameras by law enforcement officers in Illinois, including recording requirements, storage periods, and disclosure.

HB3380 amends the Law Enforcement Officer-Worn Body Camera Act in Illinois to establish guidelines for the use of body cameras by law enforcement officers. It mandates that cameras must be turned on when officers are on duty and engaged in law enforcement activities, with exceptions for certain situations. Recordings must be stored for 90 days and can only be altered or destroyed under specific circumstances, such as a flagged encounter. Flagged encounters include incidents involving complaints, use of force, or resulting in death or bodily harm.
