As you can see..
Any officer who has had disciplinary action will have their name... their law enforcement agency...what type of law enforcement agency... and documents related to their discipline... all listed for the public to see.
The bill also lays out an officer*cannot be hired by an agency if they have been fired for... obtaining flase confessions.... making false arrests... creating or using falsified evidence... depriving a person of their legal rights... and used their poistion for personal gain chynna-- other interesting notes about this bill is that the d-p-s-s-t has to publish any disciplinary action within 10 days.
