sentence reductions; offenders under twenty-one

Summary

The bill lets a judge reduce a prison sentence for anyone who committed a felony before turning 21, if they have served at least 50% of the term or 15 years and are not a danger to the community. Defendants can request the reduction and the court must consider factors like age, rehabilitation, victim views, and family background. Victims must be notified and retain their rights under the victims' bill of rights.
