Omnibus Judiciary and Public Safety policy bill

This omnibus bill amends various Minnesota statutes to update laws related to the judiciary, public safety, and law enforcement. It requires the Board of Peace Officer Standards and Training to designate agencies for investigating complaints and mandates that a peace officer's sense of smell alone cannot justify searching a vehicle or its occupants. Additionally, the bill establishes new reporting requirements for law enforcement use of force incidents resulting in serious injury or death, including monthly filings to the state and annual summaries to legislative committees. It also mandates independent investigations by the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension when an officer's use of force leads to a death, with findings made public within six months if no criminal charges are filed.
