HB 2789 -- LAW ENFORCEMENT CUSTODIAL INTERVIEWS

This bill specifies that a statement made by a person under arrest during a custodial interrogation is presumed to be involuntary if the court determines that the peace officer conducting the interview intentionally used false information to elicit the statement. The bill states the method by which the presumption can be overcome. A peace officer who intentionally uses false information during a custodial interrogation will be subject to disciplinary action.

This bill is similar to HB 1077 (2025).
