SB1614 amends Tennessee Code to allow criminal justice agencies to share data and records with bona fide researchers. These agencies must provide data related to law enforcement activities, warrants, arrests, and criminal charges. Bona fide researchers must agree to use the data solely for research, secure institutional review board approval, and implement security controls. Agencies may charge fees for data retrieval but can waive them. The attorney general and reporter must issue guidance by January 1, 2027, to help agencies comply with these requirements.
