Removes criminal liability for law enforcement officers who have investigative encounter with underage person for possession of alcohol or cannabis unless civil rights are violated.

This bill changes the requirements for charging law enforcement officers with deprivation of civil rights when dealing with underage possession or consumption of alcohol or cannabis. Currently, officers can be charged if they violate certain procedures, regardless of their intent. This bill would require prosecutors to prove that the officer acted with the intent to intimidate or discriminate based on race, religion, gender, or other protected characteristics.
