Bill > SB0726

This bill amends the Michigan Compiled Laws (M.C.L.) to add new sentencing guidelines for criminal offenses related to the provision of adulterated or raw human milk for human consumption. Specifically, the bill introduces four new criminal classifications: two involving adulterated human milk and two involving raw human milk. These offenses are categorized based on the severity of harm caused, with two levels for each type of milk: one causing physical injury (classified as a Class E felony with a maximum 5-year sentence) and another causing death (classified as a Class C felony with a maximum 15-year sentence). The bill is part of a broader set of sentencing guidelines that cover various agricultural and public safety-related offenses, and it is tied to another pending legislation (Senate Bill 724), meaning it will only take effect if that companion bill is also enacted into law. The new provisions fall under the "Public Safety" category in the sentencing guidelines, indicating the legislature's intent to protect consumers from potentially dangerous milk-related practices.
