public records; exemption; photos

SB 1022 exempts booking photographs (like mug shots taken during arrests) and photos or videos from photo enforcement systems (such as traffic cameras) from Arizona's public records disclosure requirements. The bill adds a new section to state law clarifying that government agencies do not have to release these specific images when requested under public records laws. This directly affects law enforcement and transportation departments that maintain such records. The exemption applies only to the defined categories of images, leaving other public records subject to standard disclosure rules. The bill does not alter existing requirements for other types of government records.
