This bill mandates that all law enforcement officers in New Jersey must have a digital photograph taken every eight years. The definition of a "digital photograph" is specified as a certified color image of the officer's face that can be verified and authenticated electronically. The photograph is to be included in the officer's personnel file and on their identification card if required by their agency, department, or division.
Additionally, the bill assigns the responsibility to the Attorney General, in consultation with the Superintendent of State Police, to establish guidelines to implement these requirements effectively. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
