HB 563 Police officer's 'stop and frisk' rights.

Introduced by: W. Roscoe Reynolds | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY:

Police officer's "stop and frisk" rights. Repeals the current Virginia statute thereby conforming to Terry v. Ohio . Thus, a police officer would be able to stop and question someone who he suspects is committing or about to commit any crime, rather than just a felony as is authorized under the repealed section.
