Strengthening security for Washington state judicial officers and court personnel.

SB 6086 authorizes Washington state court bailiffs and security consultants to conduct threat assessments and access limited criminal history data (including unconvicted incidents) specifically to investigate threats against judges, justices, and court personnel. It requires staff to be trained for these duties, strictly restricts data use to threat investigations, and mandates referrals to local law enforcement for verified threats. The bill clarifies that "judicial officer" includes all state and federal court staff (from supreme courts to municipal courts) and adds new rules for securely handling nonconviction data. These changes aim to strengthen security protocols while limiting data access to only authorized threat-related purposes under strict confidentiality rules.
