Creates the recording of custodial interrogations pilot project.

Declares that the purpose of the pilot project is to study the use of audio and video recording of interrogations of arrested persons as a means to ensure the most accurate gathering of evidence for use in criminal proceedings, increase accountability and credibility of all participants in the criminal justice system, and potentially reduce or avoid costs to the criminal justice system.

Requires the criminal justice training commission to submit a report on the results of the pilot project to the legislature by December 1, 2007.
