Correctional and peace officer disciplinary procedures modified.
Legislative Session 94 (2025-2026)

Related bill: SF2422

AI Generated Summary

This bill expands the Peace Officers Discipline Procedures Act to include local correctional officers. Specifically, it amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, Sections 241.026 and 626.89, to define correctional officers employed by local correctional or detention facilities as officers under the Act. This means local correctional officers will receive similar procedural protections during disciplinary investigations as peace officers.

Key changes include: - Defining "correctional officer" as a person employed in a security capacity at a local correctional or detention facility. - Including correctional officers in the definition of "officer" within the Act. - Ensuring the procedures of the Act apply to local correctional and detention facilities, not just traditional law enforcement agencies. - Clarifying that these procedures do not apply to investigations into criminal charges against an officer.

This change grants local correctional officers the same due process rights as law enforcement officers in disciplinary proceedings.
