Minnesota SF1822 makes portable recording system data on certain elected officials public.

Minnesota SF1822 amends data practices by making portable recording system data on certain elected officials public. The bill specifies that data on elected officials charged with a felony become public 14 days after a criminal complaint is filed. It also allows certain individuals to inspect data when an individual dies as a result of a use of force by a peace officer. The law enforcement agency must release all relevant data within 14 days, unless an active investigation would be interfered with. The bill allows for redactions if data are offensive to common sensibilities.
