Evidence review for Utah attorneys
Utah law enforcement agencies have adopted body-worn cameras across the state. Defense attorneys in Salt Lake City, Provo, and West Valley encounter video evidence regularly in criminal cases.
Body-Cam Laws in Utah
Utah enacted UCA 77-7a (2015) establishing comprehensive requirements for body-cam use by law enforcement. The law addresses recording obligations, retention (minimum 75 days), and access. Salt Lake City PD, West Valley PD, Provo PD, and Utah Highway Patrol have body-cam programs.
Discovery Rules & Video Evidence
Utah criminal discovery is governed by Utah R. Crim. P. 16. The prosecution must disclose all evidence material to the defense, including body-cam footage and other recordings. Utah courts have emphasized the importance of timely evidence disclosure.
