Their sons were killed in police shootings. Now, these mothers are fighting to change Colorado law.

Denver7: In the final days of the 2026 legislative session, two Colorado mothers are taking a stand for their sons who were killed by police through a bill they believe will help other families in the future.

Senate Bill 26-190 would require law enforcement agencies share recordings of deadly encounters involving civilians with their families before the public. In addition, it would implement protocols around investigations worked by several agencies, and restrict attorneys or officers from making statements that could “prejudice legal proceedings.”

Basic information like charges, public records, investigation status, and arrest details could still be shared publicly.

According to State Senate President James Coleman, D-District 33, this concept has been in the works since the beginning of the year.
