Enacts the criminal street gang related crimes act

This bill (A 5326, "Criminal Street Gang Related Crimes Act") creates enhanced penalties for specific violent crimes committed in connection with criminal street gangs. It directly affects individuals convicted of listed offenses - such as assault, robbery, kidnapping, or arson - when linked to gang membership or activity. Key provisions define "criminal street gang" and "gang-related crime," then increase penalties: violent felonies become higher-level felonies, while non-violent offenses are upgraded by one category (e.g., an E felony becomes a D felony). The law applies only to crimes meeting strict gang activity criteria, mirroring similar laws in other states.
