AI Summary
This bill, also known as "Noah's Law," amends existing Arizona law concerning narcotic drug offenses, specifically focusing on sentencing for drug sales that contribute to the death of a minor. The key provision is the addition of a new sentencing range for individuals convicted of selling a narcotic drug when that drug directly caused the death of a minor who would not have died otherwise; this new sentencing range is a minimum of 10 calendar years, a presumptive of 16 calendar years, and a maximum of 25 calendar years. The bill also makes minor technical changes to existing language regarding drug sales and possession of fentanyl, and renumbers subsequent sections of the law.
