MI HB4465

Requires law enforcement to accommodate individuals wearing religious garb (covering hair, head, face, ears, or neck) during arrest by providing a same-sex officer to be present during garb removal and photograph taking upon request

Mandates booking photographs be taken in private locations by same-sex personnel when removal of religious garb would violate the individual's expressed religious beliefs

Specifies photograph protocols: individuals with non-face coverings receive 2 photos with garb on; those with face coverings receive 4 photos (2 with garb, 2 with only face covering removed), unless arrested for a felony and being lodged in county jail with applicable written policy

Classifies booking photographs showing individuals without religious garb as confidential and exempt from FOIA disclosure, with exceptions for law enforcement investigations, witness identification, locating violent crime suspects, criminal prosecutions, and civil defense

Requires individuals not immediately released to be provided replacement religious head covering that complies with jail facility rules, and mandates any photographs taken in violation of these provisions be destroyed and retaken
