Bill Summary

AN ACT AMENDING SECTION 13-3102, ARIZONA REVISED STATUTES; RELATING TO WEAPONS AND EXPLOSIVES.

AI Summary

This bill amends Arizona law regarding misconduct involving weapons, specifically by changing the definition of "trafficking in weapons or explosives" to include trafficking a weapon or explosive for financial gain in order to assist, promote, or further the interests of a criminal street gang, a criminal syndicate, or a racketeering enterprise. It also adds a new provision stating that a person convicted of this offense, involving three or more weapons or explosives in a single offense or consolidated offenses, will not be eligible for sentence suspension, probation, pardon, or early release until their sentence is fully served. This change aims to strengthen penalties for individuals involved in organized criminal activities that involve the trafficking of weapons or explosives.
