SB0235 amends the Counties Code to allow special investigators appointed by State's Attorneys to carry firearms in the performance of their duties.
SB0235 modifies the Counties Code by removing a restriction that limited special investigators appointed by State's Attorneys to carrying firearms only during their assigned duties. Previously, these investigators could not carry firearms except with the State's Attorney's permission and only while carrying appropriate identification. This change allows special investigators to carry firearms as part of their duties, subject to the State's Attorney's approval and proper identification.
