MO SB1665

Government agents may not enter private homes without a warrant except with occupant permission, to respond to life-threatening emergencies or immediate public safety threats, or to prevent imminent destruction of evidence when probable cause exists.

Government agents must immediately notify landowners upon entering private property and must show the warrant to occupants if present.

Body-mounted cameras must be activated and recording the entire time a government agent is on private property.

Evidence obtained and arrests made through searches violating these requirements are inadmissible and invalid in administrative, civil, or criminal proceedings.

Individuals subjected to unlawful searches may bring civil actions against the employing state agency and recover declaratory relief, injunctive relief, compensatory and nominal damages, and attorney's fees.
