Kentucky Shows How to Get Tough on Crime!
The Republican-controlled legislature is advancing House Bill 5 (HB5), also known as the "Safer Kentucky Act," and it includes a ton of tough-on-crime provisions that other states that value the safety of their residents out to consider modeling.
(Kentucky's governor is a Democrat, but the Republican legislator is a super-majority with veto-override capability.)
Included in the 72-page bill are provisions that:
prohibit or tightly constrain probation and parole for a variety of violent crimes,
makes death-by-fentanyl-sale a capital crime,
substantially elevate the severity and sentences for a variety of violent crimes including carjacking,
prohibits unlawful homeless encampments,
explicitly approves the use of force by property owners or renters to remove squatters or trespassers,
empowers the state Attorney General to sue any that decline to enforce that law (e.g., sanctuary cities),
requires homeless shelters to prohibit resident individuals from the use of drugs or alcohol and require that they consent to mental health conditions and refrain from criminal activity,
allows for the institutionalizing of individuals without requiring proof of criminal conduct,
tightly restricts the ability of "charitable bail organizations" to bail out violent criminals,
strengthens the ability of retail establishments to use force to detain shoplifters and organized theft rings,
provides criminal and civil immunity to shoplifters who lawfully use force to stop shoplifters,
defines reckless endangerment with a firearm as a "violent offender" crime for which probation or parole is tightly constrained,
expands the definition of terroristic threatening to include any building and any gathering of 3 or more persons,
mandates that school employees report to police certain violent acts or firearms possession by students,
expands the definition of "serious physical injury" for certain domestic violence offenses (including "dating" relationships),
greatly increases the penalties for flight from the police,
... and much, much more!
