Relating to increasing the minimum term of imprisonment and changing the eligibility for community supervision, mandatory supervision, and parole for certain persons convicted of intoxication manslaughter.
SB 1133, titled "Grayson's Law," increases penalties for certain intoxication manslaughter convictions. It sets a minimum 10-year prison term for offenders present in Texas after committing a Chapter 51 offense (illegal entry), and bars them from probation or deferred adjudication. The bill also prohibits parole eligibility until an inmate serves 10 years without good conduct time, and delays mandatory supervision until meeting that same 10-year threshold. These changes apply only to offenses committed on or after September 1, 2025. The bill directly affects individuals convicted of intoxication manslaughter involving prior illegal entry into Texas.
