An Act prohibiting deception in juvenile interrogations

HD 2133 prohibits law enforcement from using deception (like false promises or misleading information) during police questioning of juveniles in custody. It requires all such interrogations in detention locations to be recorded, making any unrecorded statement or evidence from it inadmissible in court. The bill directly affects juveniles (under 18) and law enforcement officers conducting custodial interrogations. Key provisions include presuming any statement made under deception as involuntary, and requiring the prosecution to prove a statement was voluntary if deception occurred, or to justify why a recording wasn't made. This aims to protect juveniles from coercive tactics during police questioning.
