Bill > SB94

This bill mandates that individuals convicted of domestic violence offenses, including assault, battery, aggravated battery, criminal damage to property, and deprivation of property against a household member, must participate in and complete a domestic violence offender treatment or intervention program approved by the Children, Youth and Families Department, which will establish criteria for these programs. It also modifies the consequences for violating probation related to suspended or deferred sentences for these offenses, allowing courts to impose the original sentence without credit for time served on probation, with specific limitations on incarceration and probation periods depending on the offense. Additionally, the bill clarifies that violating an order of protection under the Family Violence Protection Act will result in mandatory participation in an approved domestic violence offender treatment program, in addition to other penalties.
