Iowa Attorney General Richard Turner urged the 174th General Assembly to enact measures granting state immunity to witnesses, authorize state supervised wiretaps, enable joint criminal trials, and empower county grand juries. He argued these tools would aid in prosecuting organized crime and saving state resources. He also pressed for a statewide grand jury if needed and a new price fixing statute, while opposing a statewide public defender system.
