Evidence review for Connecticut attorneys
Connecticut was an early adopter of body-cam requirements for law enforcement. Defense attorneys across the state work with growing volumes of video evidence in criminal cases.
Body-Cam Laws in Connecticut
Connecticut PA 15-04 (2015) mandated body-cam policies for all law enforcement agencies and required all officers to be equipped with body cameras by 2022. The law includes detailed requirements for when officers must record, footage retention (minimum 180 days), and access provisions.
Discovery Rules & Video Evidence
Connecticut criminal discovery is governed by Practice Book Sections 40-11 through 40-16. Connecticut provides for early and broad disclosure, and prosecutors must turn over all exculpatory and material evidence, including body-cam footage. Connecticut courts have emphasized the importance of timely disclosure of video evidence.
