Police agencies oppose making discipline records public May 19, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail RICHMOND, Va. (AP) Some police agencies in Virginia are opposing legislation that would make disciplinary records public, saying the move could lead to police leaders sweeping misconduct under the rug. The Richmond Times-Dispatch reports that agency representatives spoke Tuesday to a Virginia Freedom of Information Advisory Council subcommittee. Representatives of the Virginia State Police, the Virginia Sheriffs’ Association and the Virginia Association of Counties were among those expressing concerns. The bill sponsored by Del. Mike Mullin, D-Newport News, would require release of law enforcement disciplinary records. The public already learns about officers charged with crimes, but people should also know about misconduct that doesn’t rise to that level, said Mullin.
