officer that results in substantial bodily harm, as defined in section 609.02, subdivision 7a,
are public;

(2) data are public if a subject of the data requests it be made accessible to the public,
except that, if practicable, (i) data on a subject who is not a peace officer and who does not
consent to the release must be redacted, and (ii) data on a peace officer whose identity is
protected under section 13.82, subdivision 17, clause (a), must be redacted;

redacted no more than what is required by law, of an officer's use of deadly force no later
than five business days following an incident where deadly force used by a peace officer
results in the death of an individual, except that a chief law enforcement officer may deny
a request if the investigating agency requests and can articulate a compelling reason as to
why allowing the deceased individual's next of kin, legal representative of next of kin, or
other parent of the deceased individual's children to review the recordings would interfere
with a thorough investigation. If the chief law enforcement officer denies a request under
this paragraph, the involved officer's agency must issue a prompt, written denial and provide

other parent of the deceased individual's children that relief may be sought from the district

Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 241.01, subdivision 3a, is amended to read:

The commissioner of corrections has the
following powers and duties:

(a) To accept persons committed to the commissioner by the courts of this state for care,
custody, and rehabilitation.

(b) To determine the place of confinement of committed persons in a correctional facility
or other facility of the Department of Corrections and to prescribe reasonable conditions
and rules for their employment, conduct, instruction, and discipline within or outside the
facility. Inmates shall not exercise custodial functions or have authority over other inmates.

(d) To administer, maintain, and inspect all state correctional facilities.

(e) To transfer authorized positions and personnel between state correctional facilities
as necessary to properly staff facilities and programs.

(f) To utilize state correctional facilities in the manner deemed to be most efficient and
beneficial to accomplish the purposes of this section, but not to close the Minnesota
Correctional Facility-Stillwater or the Minnesota Correctional Facility-St. Cloud without
legislative approval. The commissioner may place juveniles and adults at the same state
minimum security correctional facilities, if there is total separation of and no regular contact
between juveniles and adults, except contact incidental to admission, classification, and
mental and physical health care.

(g) To organize the department and employ personnel the commissioner deems necessary

facility under the commissioner's control who shall serve in the unclassified civil service

discrimination, and is achieved by diverting people away from the criminal justice system

Minnesota Statutes 2020, section 244.09, subdivision 5, is amended to read:

The commission shall promulgate
Sentencing Guidelines for the district court. The guidelines shall be based on reasonable
offense and offender characteristics. The guidelines promulgated by the commission shall
be advisory to the district court and shall establish:

(1) the circumstances under which imprisonment of an offender is proper; and

(2) a presumptive, fixed sentence for offenders for whom imprisonment is proper, based
on each appropriate combination of reasonable offense and offender characteristics. The
guidelines shall provide for an increase of 20 percent and a decrease of 15 percent in the
presumptive, fixed sentence.

The Sentencing Guidelines promulgated by the commission may also establish appropriate
sanctions for offenders for whom imprisonment is not proper. Any guidelines promulgated
by the commission establishing sanctions for offenders for whom imprisonment is not proper
shall make specific reference to noninstitutional sanctions, including but not limited to the
following: payment of fines, day fines, restitution, community work orders, work release
programs in local facilities, community based residential and nonresidential programs,
incarceration in a local correctional facility, and probation and the conditions thereof.

Although the Sentencing Guidelines are advisory to the district court, the court shall
follow the procedures of the guidelines when it pronounces sentence in a proceeding to
which the guidelines apply by operation of statute. Sentencing pursuant to the Sentencing
Guidelines is not a right that accrues to a person convicted of a felony; it is a procedure
based on state public policy to maintain uniformity, proportionality, rationality, and
predictability in sentencing.

In establishing and modifying the Sentencing Guidelines, the primary consideration of
the commission shall be public safety. new text begin "Public safety" means reducing or preventing crime
while maintaining the basic rights, freedoms, and privileges that belong to every person,

Promoting public safety includes the promotion of human rights. new text end The commission shall also
consider current sentencing and release practices; correctional resources, including but not
limited to the capacities of local and state correctional facilities; and the long-term negative
impact of the crime on the community.

The provisions of sections 14.001 to 14.69 do not apply to the promulgation of the
Sentencing Guidelines, and the Sentencing Guidelines, including severity levels and criminal
history scores, are not subject to review by the legislative commission to review
administrative rules. However, the commission shall adopt rules pursuant to sections 14.001
to 14.69 which establish procedures for the promulgation of the Sentencing Guidelines,
including procedures for the promulgation of severity levels and criminal history scores,
and these rules shall be subject to review by the Legislative Coordinating Commission.
