S.1499

New Jersey S1499 mandates the Attorney General to issue updated press releases on investigation outcomes.

New Jersey S1499, known as the "Transparency in Prosecutorial Communication Act," requires the Attorney General to release updated press releases on the outcomes of investigations. This law aims to ensure the public has access to information about the conclusion of investigations, as press releases are often the only source of information when investigative files are not accessible. The act mandates that for every press release issued at the start of an investigation, an updated release must be published at the investigation's conclusion, detailing the outcome.
