SB 22 - Under current law, when a person under the age of 18 is sentenced to a term or terms of imprisonment amounting to 15 years or more, that person is eligible for parole after serving 15 years, unless such person was found guilty of murder in the first degree. This act adds that such a person will also be ineligible for parole if he or she was found guilty of murder in the second degree. The provisions of this act are identical to provisions in SB 664 (2022), SCS/HB 2088, et al (2022), SCS/HB 2697, et al (2022), and SS/SCS/SB 850 (2022). MARY GRACE PRINGLE
