This bill adds
certain Class A, B, and C crimes against minors to the list of actions
without limitations on prosecution.
The current average cost of incarcerating one individual for a single
year is $55,203.
This bill may increase the number of cases filed in the court system. The
additional workload associated with the minimal number of new cases does not
require additional funding at this time.
The collection of additional filing fees will increase General Fund Revenue
by minor amounts and the collection of additional fines will increase General
Fund or other dedicated revenue by minor amounts. |
