ett Old I PI <br /> pL£ASANTON. <br /> injury, sexual assault, discharge of a firearm, or dishonesty relating to the reporting, <br /> investigation, or prosecution of a crime or misconduct by another peace officer or <br /> custodial officer, despite the peace officer's or custodial officer's voluntary separation <br /> from the employing agency. The bill would require the investigation to result in a finding <br /> that the allegation is either sustained, not sustained, unfounded, or exonerated. The bill <br /> would also require an agency other than an officer's employing agency that conducts an <br /> investigation of these allegations to disclose its findings with the employing agency no <br /> later than the conclusion of the investigation. <br /> AB 1652 (Wicks) Law enforcement agency policies: use of force: protests. <br /> This bill would require each law enforcement agency to expand the agency's use of <br /> force policy to include clear and specific guidelines under which officers may use <br /> "kettling" or "corralling," and to prohibit officers from failing to wear, or intentionally <br /> obscure or conceal information on, a badge while on duty. The bill would also require <br /> each agency's policy to prohibit law enforcement officers from using force on individuals <br /> engaged in, or members of the press covering, a lawful assembly or protest and would <br /> further require the policy to require that an officer who is found to have intentionally <br /> violated this policy be suspended. <br /> This bill would restrict law enforcement tactics to protect lives and property in dynamic <br /> events where nefarious actors are embedded with lawful protestors. This bill also <br /> mandates penalties for violation which usurps the due process in employee discipline. <br /> AB 1775 (Jones-Sawyer) False reports and harassment. <br /> Current law makes certain publications and communications, including certain <br /> communications in a legislative proceeding, judicial proceeding, any other official <br /> proceeding authorized by law, or in the initiation or course of any other proceeding <br /> authorized by law and reviewable pursuant to a writ of mandate, privileged, and <br /> therefore protected from civil action, subject to certain exceptions. These exceptions <br /> include any communication made in a judicial proceeding knowingly concealing the <br /> existence of an insurance policy or policies. This bill would additionally create an <br /> exception to the privilege provisions for any communication between a person and a law <br /> enforcement agency in which the person knowingly or recklessly makes a false report <br /> that another person has committed, or is in the act of committing, a criminal act or is <br /> engaged in an activity requiring law enforcement intervention. <br /> AB 1950 (Kamlager) Probation: length of terms. <br /> Current law authorizes courts that have jurisdiction in misdemeanor cases to suspend <br /> the sentence and make and enforce terms of probation in those cases, for a period not <br /> to exceed 3 years, except when the period of the maximum sentence imposed by law <br /> exceeds 3 years, in which case the terms of probation may be imposed for a longer <br /> period than 3 years, but not to exceed the time for which the person may be imprisoned. <br /> This bill would instead restrict the period of probation for a misdemeanor to no longer <br /> than one year, except as specified. <br /> 6 <br />
