According to some comments on the article these rights apply only during "Administrative Investigations" and not "Criminal Investigations".
Does anyone know if any officer involved death starts off as an administrative investigation or as a criminal one?
- desdiv 12y agoHere's a quote from Wisconsin's Law Enforcement Officers' Bill of Rights[0]: If a law enforcement officer is under investigation and is subjected to interrogation for any reason which could lead to disciplinary action, demotion, dismissal or criminal charges, the interrogation shall comply with the following requirements... That sounds broad enough to cover "Criminal Investigations". This might just be just Wisconsin though; the law might be different where that commenter lives.
