Requires Corrections Ombudsperson review criminal investigations under certain circumstances.

This bill requires New Jersey's Corrections Ombudsperson to review criminal investigations conducted by the Department of Corrections or Special Investigations Division to ensure they were accurate, unbiased, and thorough. The ombudsperson must examine investigation methods, evidence files, and other relevant documents - excluding ongoing investigations - and provide inmates who filed complaints with updates on the review status and estimated completion time. It removes prior restrictions preventing the ombudsperson from reviewing Prison Rape Elimination Act investigations and confidential files. The bill directly affects inmates who report concerns about criminal investigations within correctional facilities.
