Sec. 2. An immediate family member: (1) of a person whose death is an uncharged death; and (2) who has reasonable suspicion that the uncharged death was caused by the criminal act of a third person; has the right to request the superintendent of the state police department to conduct a new investigation to determine whether the death was the result of a criminal act committed by a third person.
