Inmate deaths; require autopsy reports be provided to certain elected officials.

HB 1737 requires that when an autopsy is performed on a state inmate in Mississippi, the State Medical Examiner must provide a copy of the autopsy report to the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and the chairs of the House and Senate Corrections Committees. This bill amends Section 47-5-151 of the Mississippi Code to explicitly include these officials as recipients of the report, ensuring transparency about inmate deaths. The provision applies to all state inmates, excluding those who were lawfully executed. The bill clarifies an existing requirement but does not introduce new policy changes.
