Amends sec. 13j of 1927 PA 175 (MCL 777.13j). TIE BAR WITH: SB 0939'24
This bill amends Michigan's sentencing guidelines to address crimes committed against adults in residential psychiatric care facilities that have lost their licenses or refused to renew them. It requires judges to consider the specific circumstances of these revoked or suspended facilities when determining appropriate sentences for offenders. The change aims to ensure that the status of the facility is a factor in how severely a crime is punished, without specifying exact sentence lengths.
