SB 90 amends Chapter 1 of
Title 35 of the O.C.G.A. to require all state, county, and local law enforcement
officers who primarily conduct traffic stops or respond to emergency dispatch
calls to attach an audio and video recording device to their persons effective
the start of next year. The recording, used to capture all activities from the
officer’s point of view or line of sight, could be made publicly available
provided its relevance towards depicting an encounter that took place for a law
enforcement purpose. |
