Bill > SB1512

This bill amends Arizona law regarding theft, specifically by updating the definitions and penalties related to theft from vulnerable adults and the classification of theft based on the value of stolen property. It clarifies what constitutes a "position of trust and confidence" and expands the definition of a "vulnerable adult" to include individuals eighteen years or older with physical or mental impairments that prevent them from protecting themselves, as well as specific criteria for individuals sixty-five years or older who may be at higher risk of exploitation. The bill also adjusts the monetary thresholds for different felony and misdemeanor classifications of theft, with some values being lowered, and clarifies that the value of stolen metal includes any damage caused during the theft.
