Peace officers cooperation with certain investigations requirement provision
This bill requires peace officers in Minnesota to cooperate with investigations conducted by other law enforcement agencies into incidents involving the use of force by a peace officer. It specifically applies when the officer being asked to cooperate is not the subject of the investigation or accused of wrongdoing in that matter. The bill mandates the Peace Officer Standards and Training Board to update its standards of conduct to include this requirement and grants officers immunity from civil or criminal liability for statements made while cooperating. This changes existing protocols by formally mandating cooperation in these specific investigations and providing legal protection for officers who comply.
