AK SB85

Removes the exception that previously allowed parties to a private conversation to divulge or publish that communication without consent from all other parties

Changes Alaska from a "one-party consent" to an "all-party consent" state for recording conversations, requiring consent from all parties rather than just one party to legally use an eavesdropping device

Eliminates the exemption that allowed peace officers to use concealed transmitting devices during criminal investigations for officer safety purposes when the officer was a party to the conversation

Adds a new exemption permitting peace officers to intercept communications using eavesdropping devices when the person communicating knew or reasonably should have known they were speaking in the presence of a peace officer

Expands the law enforcement exemption to include investigating crimes, collecting evidence, and issuing lawful court processes
