NEW LEGISLATION AIMS TO INCREASE THE USE OF PERSONAL VIDEO FOOTAGE TO SOLVE CRIMES. 

THE BILL IS SPONSORED BY REPRESENTATIVE MIKE ZALEWSKI OF RIVERSIDE, WHO PATTERED THE MEASURE AFTER A SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM IN SUBURBAN ELMWOOD PARK.

UNDER THE PROPOSAL, THOSE SUBMITTING FOOTAGE WOULD RECEIVE ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS IF IT HELPS IN PROSECUTING A CRIME.
