Virginia Code § 16.1-247.1 — AI-created deceptive replica documents in child interrogation

AI-use reference. Current. Applies to: Law-enforcement officers and agents conducting covered custodial interrogations of children Requirements or purpose: Prohibits knowingly and intentionally making false statements about known material facts to secure cooperation, confession or conviction, including replica documents created with AI. Knowing violations trigger inadmissibility unless prosecutor proves the statement knowing, intelligent and voluntary by a preponderance, subject to stated subsection B exceptions. Limits: Custodial child-interrogation rule, not a general ban on AI evidence. Read A/B exceptions and D burden together.
