Description
*
The commission shall review unresolved cases involving missing and murdered indigenous persons from different state regions that are identified by the Department of Public Safety to (1) examine the trends and patterns related to missing and murdered indigenous persons; and (2) make policy, practice, and service recommendations to the Department of Public Safety to encourage collaboration and reduce cases involving indigenous persons. (h) A person attending a meeting of the commission or a member or staff of the commission may not disclose information obtained during the review of a case by the commission. (i) Documents, materials, and reports obtained or compiled by the commission or a designated representative of the commission in the course of reviewing a case involving a missing or murdered indigenous person under this section are confidential and are not public records under AS 40.25.110 - 40.25.125 or subject to discovery or subpoena in connection with a criminal or civil proceeding. A person may not be compelled to disclose information relating 1 to the documents, materials, and reports through subpoena, discovery, or testimony in a criminal or civil proceeding. Nothing in this subsection prohibits a member of the commission from prosecuting a criminal case or otherwise participating in a civil or criminal proceeding as part of, or relating to, the member's normal course of employment if the criminal case or civil or criminal proceeding involves a case reviewed by the commission. The confidential status of documents, materials, or reports obtained by the commission does not preclude the discoverability or subpoena of those documents, materials, or reports from other agencies or sources. This section does not affect whether a document, material, or report obtained or compiled by the commission is otherwise publicly available.
