House Committee Substitute

HCS/SB 932 - This act creates the "Cyber Crime Investigation Fund". This fund shall be used solely for the administration of the cyber crime investigation grant program. Beginning with fiscal year 2010, the general assembly shall appropriate three million dollars to the fund annually. The department of public safety shall administer the fund.

This act allows money distributed by the Department of Public Safety to investigate internet sex crimes against children to be used to fund training for prosecuting and circuit attorneys. Currently, the money can only be used for other purposes, including training law enforcement personnel.

Currently, peace officers who make traffic stops are required to receive annual training concerning the prohibition of race profiling. This act changes the training requirement to three hours within the law enforcement continuing education three-year reporting period.

This act is similar to SB 477 (2007) and HB 2224 (2008).
