Lawmakers have advanced a bill that would remove the identifying information of victims and witnesses who are minors from criminal justice records released to the public
Legislation requiring the deletion of all juvenile victim and witness names from police and court records before the records are released to the public won unanimous approval in the Senate Judiciary Committee.
The names of child victims and witnesses would be removed from criminal justice records before the records are released to the public if legislation introduced by two state senators becomes law.
Three people were hurt in the November 2021 shooting in the parking lot of the Aurora high school. 4 teens were arrested. One pleaded guilty to attempted murder.
