Summary

The bill forces a minimum one‑year prison sentence for anyone convicted of a felony intended to terrorize two or more people inside a church, and it eliminates the option of probation for those crimes. It also prevents prosecutors from dismissing, amending, or placing such cases in deferred‑prosecution programs without a judge’s approval. The measures target violent attacks on places of worship and aim to increase deterrence.
