AI Summary

This bill amends Michigan's criminal procedure law to specifically address xylazine, a veterinary tranquilizer that has become increasingly problematic in illicit drug use. The bill adds new provisions to the sentencing guidelines that create specific criminal classifications for xylazine-related offenses. Specifically, the bill establishes three new criminal offenses with corresponding sentencing guidelines: delivery or manufacture of xylazine for illicit use (Class E felony with a maximum 5-year sentence), possession of xylazine for illicit use (Class E felony with a maximum 5-year sentence), and selling or offering to sell objects intended for the illicit use of xylazine (Class E felony with a maximum 5-year sentence). These new provisions are part of a broader effort to address emerging drug threats by creating specific legal frameworks for substances that are being misused. The bill will only take effect if a companion bill (House Bill No. 4166) is also enacted into law, indicating a coordinated legislative approach to addressing xylazine-related criminal activities.
