California Law Ends Deceptive Policing Tactic
A new California law bans a deceptive policing tactic used against families of people killed by police.
The legislation, signed by Gov. Gavin Newsom, requires investigators to inform families of what happened to their loved one before questioning them.
- Investigators are barred from lying to families or pressuring them into consenting to interviews.
- Families are allowed to bring a support person to interviews.
A Reveal investigation helped spark a crackdown on this disturbing practice.
