SB 2463 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Right to Know How Safe We Are Act of 2025; enact.

SB 2463, the "Right to Know How Safe We Are Act of 2025," would have required Mississippi district attorneys to file annual public reports by March 1st detailing their office's handling of criminal cases. The reports would have included aggregate data on case intake (e.g., cases accepted for prosecution, dismissed, or diverted), dispositions (e.g., dismissals by reason, guilty pleas, trial outcomes), and sentencing (e.g., incarceration, probation, or jail terms). The Attorney General would have compiled these into a statewide, sortable public report by May 1st for policymakers. However, the bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and was never enacted into law.
