Summary as Introduced

Amends the Law Enforcement Officer-Worn Body Camera Act. Provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of law, if a law enforcement agency has in its possession a recording from an officer-worn body camera which shows an individual under 18 years of age being shot or tased by an officer, then the law enforcement agency must release the recording, in its entirety, to that individual's parent or legal guardian not later than 7 calendar days after receiving a written demand for that material from the parent or legal guardian. A demand under this subsection is not a request for a public record under the Freedom of Information Act.
