Bill Summary

Relative to dangerousness hearings. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill amends subsection (1) of section 58A of chapter 276 of the General Laws to add persons arrested and charged with a violation of subsection (c½) of section 32E of chapter 94C to the types of individuals who can be subject to a dangerousness hearing. Dangerousness hearings are special proceedings that allow a court to determine whether an individual poses a threat to public safety and should be held without bail. The key change is the addition of those charged with a specific drug offense related to the manufacture, distribution, or dispensation of a Class B substance.
