SB 1421 establishes guidelines for law enforcement agencies regarding the use of less-lethal force weapons, such as stun guns. It provides a defense for peace officers and correctional facility guards who use such weapons in the line of duty if they comply with their training, department policies, state law, and manufacturer instructions. The bill also mandates that law enforcement agencies adopt policies on less-lethal weapons, ensuring proper training, oversight, and adherence to standardized procedures​.
