Senate Bill 1371 sponsored by Arizona State Senator Shawnna Bolick (R-Phoenix), was signed into law on April 1, 2024. 

The bill will ensure any victim of “domestic violence or a sexual offense the right to receive a free copy of specified criminal case reports and recordings.”

The crimes this bill is applicable for include criminal homicide, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft, arson, and human trafficking.

Bolick has represented Arizona’s 2nd State Senate District since August 2023, when she was appointed by the Maricopa County Board of Advisors to fill the seat vacated by retiring State Sen. Steve Kaiser (R-Phoenix).

She previously represented District 20 in the Arizona House of Representatives from 2019 to 2023. Bolick also served on the Arizona State Board of Education’s Academic Standards Development Committee and was appointed to Arizona’s Early Childhood Education and Health Board by former Gov. Doug Ducey (R-Ariz.)

Bolick attended Syracuse University and received a master’s degree from American University. 

A native of Pittsburgh, Penn., Bolick lives in Phoenix with her husband.
