S 911 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires revocation of parole for assaulting or threatening law enforcement officers.

This bill requires New Jersey's parole board to immediately revoke parole and initiate custody proceedings for any parolee arrested or indicted for assaulting a law enforcement officer or threatening to kill or cause physical harm to an officer (or their family member) with the intent to cause immediate fear. It directly affects parolees convicted of these specific offenses, including threats against retired officers based on their former status. The key provision mandates automatic detention and revocation proceedings upon arrest or indictment for these acts, without waiting for a criminal conviction. The bill applies to threats against an officer's spouse, parent, child, or other household family member, as defined in the legislation.
