Bill overview
This bill amends California law to increase the minimum parole eligibility period for individuals convicted of torture, particularly when the victim was a minor. Specifically, if an adult convicted of torture had care or custody of a victim who was 14 years old or younger, they will not be eligible for parole until they have served at least 10 years. This change aims to ensure a longer period of incarceration for offenders who inflicted severe pain and suffering on young victims. The bill also clarifies that local agencies will not be required to reimburse the state for any costs associated with this change.
