The Brady List Project
To ensure fair trials, the Supreme Court of the United States established the Brady Doctrine, which obligates prosecutors in every case to investigate, obtain, and disclose all information regarding any individual whose testimony or professional conduct may affect the integrity of judicial proceedings.
The Brady List is the definitive public-facing platform of record for accountability information and potential impeachment disclosures involving Law Enforcement Organizations [LEOrgs], Prosecutors, Judges, and government agents. The platform includes records of officer misconduct, decertification, public complaints, use-of-force reports, do-not-call listings [Giglio letter], and other materials relevant to due process, transparency, and the preservation of justice within the legal system.
This platform is available as-a-service to all Peace Officer Standards & Training [POST] Departments, Prosecutors, State (Regulatory) Bars, Law Enforcement Organizations [LEOrgs], Courts, Judicial Disciplinary Bodies, and Government Agencies.
South Dakota Sunshine Law
The South Dakota Sunshine Law is a series of laws designed to guarantee that public has access to public records of governmental bodies. Public records are defined as all records kept by public bodies in South Dakota, no matter the physical form. The state also offers OpenSD, a search-able website with many public documents available.
Anyone may request public records and a statement of purpose is not required. There are no restrictions on the use of records in the South Dakota Sunshine Law, nor is there a specified response time.
