Revise county attorney reporting requirements for child sexual abuse

This bill requires Montana county attorneys to collect and retain records related to child sexual abuse investigations for 25 years, specifically when the alleged perpetrator is 12 years of age or older. It mandates that county attorneys receive case materials from law enforcement, child welfare departments, and interdisciplinary child safety teams, and must confirm receipt of reports to the initial reporters within a specified timeframe. Additionally, county attorneys must submit annual reports to the attorney general detailing case identifiers, filing dates, prosecution decisions, and conviction outcomes, while the attorney general will compile aggregated data and report findings to the law and justice committee. The bill also establishes a standardized reporting form and ensures that all collected information remains confidential criminal justice data.
