Missouri House Committee Passes Bills to Limit Warrantless Drone Surveillance By: Mike Maharrey\|Published on: Mar 2, 2023\|Categories: Drones, State Bills\| JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (March 5, 2023) – On Tuesday, a Missouri House committee passed a bill that would limit warrantless drone surveillance. The legislation would not only establish important privacy protections at the state level; it would also help thwart the federal surveillance state. Rep. Dean VanScholack (R) introduced House Bill 178 ( HB178) on Jan. 4. Rep. Mike Haffner (R) introduced a similar bill ( HB401) that was replaced by HB178. The legislation would require state and local law enforcement agencies to get a warrant before using a drone or other unmanned aircraft to gather evidence or other information pertaining to criminal conduct or conduct in violation of a statute or regulation. The proposed law includes some exceptions to the warrant requirement. Police could use a drone without a warrant in state, national, or local emergency situations “if there is an imminent threat to life or of great bodily harm including, but not limited to, fires, hostage crises, hot pursuit situations if reasonably necessary to prevent harm to law enforcement officers or others, and search and rescue operations on land or water.” Law enforcement agencies would also be able to use drones without a warrant for assessments of traffic accidents or fires. Any information collected in violation of the law would be inadmissible as evidence in a criminal proceeding in any court of law in the state or in an administrative hearing... blog.tenthamendmentcenter.com
