Neutral Bill Mar 16, 2026

CHILD ADVOCACY-VIDEO-INTERVIEW

Amends the Children's Advocacy Center Act. Provides that a person charged with a criminal offense involving abuse or neglect of a child does not have standing to object to the failure to comply with the electronic recording requirement of a forensic interview. Provides that it is not a violation of the Act if a forensic interview is not recorded because: (1) the recording equipment malfunctions and the malfunction is not the result of a failure to maintain the equipment or provide adequate supplies for the equipment; or (2) due to circumstances that could not have been reasonably foreseen by the interviewer, the interviewer does not have the necessary recording equipment.
