Bill Summary
Generally revise death penalty laws
AI Summary
This bill generally revises death penalty laws by replacing the possibility of a death sentence with life imprisonment without the possibility of parole for certain offenses, including deliberate homicide, aggravated kidnapping, and sexual intercourse without consent, and also removes references to the death penalty in various legal contexts such as bail, jury selection, and the governor's executive clemency powers, while also making conforming changes to related statutes and repealing sections of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) that specifically outline the death penalty process.
