What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, a person who intentionally causes bodily harm to a

probation, extended supervision, and parole agent; a community supervision agent;

or an aftercare agent is guilty of a Class H felony. This bill expands the crime so that

intentionally harming a family member of the agent, or threatening to harm the

agent or a family member of the agent, is also a Class H felony.

Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,

the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a

report.
