Bill > HB3992

This bill, known as "Knights Law", proposes the following key provisions: 1. Persons convicted of certain sex crimes, including first-degree rape, child sexual abuse, child pornography, and human trafficking of a minor for commercial sex, must serve 100% of their sentence without eligibility for earned credits or any other credits that would reduce their sentence. 2. The list of offenses that require serving at least 85% of the sentence before becoming eligible for parole consideration is expanded to include additional violent and sex-related crimes. 3. Penalties for human trafficking, child pornography, and child prostitution are increased, with mandatory minimum sentences of 15-20 years and potential life without parole for certain offenses involving minors. 4. There is a rebuttable presumption that no bail should be granted for registered sex offenders arrested for sex crimes, similar to the existing provisions for domestic violence offenders. 5. Inmates serving sentences for the specified sex crimes are not eligible to receive any earned credits that would reduce their sentence length. Overall, the bill aims to implement stricter sentencing and incarceration requirements for individuals convicted of serious sex crimes, especially those involving minors.
