The bill establishes new procedures and requirements for law enforcement and governmental entities to conduct reverse-location information searches. It mandates that a law enforcement agency must obtain a search warrant to access reverse-location information for electronic devices within a specified geofence or based on cell site records, provided that the investigation involves a violent felony and demonstrates an imminent threat to public safety. The warrant application must include a visual representation of the geofence or cell site locations, specific notice language, and evidence of probable cause. If granted, the court will require that all data obtained be anonymized before being released to the law enforcement agency.

Additionally, the bill outlines restrictions on the use, copying, or disclosure of reverse-location information obtained under a warrant, emphasizing that such information must be related to the specific crime under investigation. It also includes provisions for the destruction of unrelated reverse-location information and prohibits its use in other investigations unless it pertains to the same criminal incident. The bill further allows for the delay of notification to the owner of the electronic device under certain circumstances, and it establishes that any information obtained in violation of the bill's provisions is subject to exclusion as evidence. Starting January 1, 2027, law enforcement agencies will be required to submit annual reports to the general assembly detailing their use of reverse-location warrants.
