Law enforcement pursuits; require municipalities and counties to develop policies regarding.

Mississippi's SB 2326 requires all county sheriff departments and municipal police departments to create and implement written policies for police vehicle pursuits by December 31, 2025. These policies must prohibit initiating pursuits for misdemeanor offenses (except carjacking, murder, aggravated assault, or robbery), include specific criteria for starting and ending pursuits based on safety and offense severity, and detail communication protocols for interjurisdictional pursuits. Agencies failing to adopt a compliant policy will lose eligibility for state accreditation, and the Department of Public Safety can notify the Department of Revenue to withhold certain county or municipal funding until compliance is achieved. The bill directly affects local law enforcement agencies across Mississippi and mandates concrete changes to pursuit procedures.
