Evidence review for Colorado attorneys
Colorado enacted landmark police accountability legislation that includes body-cam requirements. Defense attorneys in Denver, Colorado Springs, and Aurora regularly work with video evidence from body-worn cameras.
Body-Cam Laws in Colorado
SB 20-217 (Enhance Law Enforcement Integrity Act, 2020) requires all Colorado law enforcement officers to wear body cameras by 2023. The law mandates recording of all interactions with the public and includes provisions for footage retention, access, and penalties for tampering with or failing to activate cameras.
Discovery Rules & Video Evidence
Colorado criminal discovery is governed by Rule 16 of the Colorado Rules of Criminal Procedure and Crim. P. 16. Colorado provides for broad discovery, and the prosecution must disclose all evidence, including body-cam footage, to the defense. The 2020 body-cam mandate has significantly increased video evidence volumes in criminal cases.
