This bill would require official investigations when a student suffers a serious injury or dies on school property, at a school event, or during an interscholastic athletic event. It assigns the state school security marshal to lead those investigations and requires a coroner to perform an autopsy in any death occurring on school property or at a school-sanctioned event. The goal is to create a clear, consistent process for reviewing these incidents and referring potential criminal matters when appropriate. Who it may affect: students, parents, school administrators, school safety officials, and coroners across Kentucky.
