Delaware Code § 11-2008

Exception for safety of individual or protection of identity
Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
A custodial interrogation to which § 2003 of this title otherwise applies need not be recorded electronically if a law-enforcement
officer conducting the interrogation or the officer's superior reasonably believes that electronic recording would disclose the identity of
a confidential informant or jeopardize the safety of an officer, the individual being interrogated, or another individual. If feasible and
consistent with the safety of a confidential informant, an explanation of the basis for the belief that electronic recording would disclose
the informant's identity must be in writing at the time of the interrogation. If contemporaneous memorialization of the basis for the belief
is not feasible, the memorialization must be made as soon as practicable after the interrogation is completed.
