Bill overview
This bill provides accidental death benefits to the surviving spouse, child, or parent of a New Jersey State Police recruit who dies during required pre-service training. It reclassifies the death as a death in the line of duty, allowing benefits to be paid retroactively. The amount of the benefit varies depending on the surviving family member(s), with a minimum of $50,000 payable to a surviving spouse, and further distributions to children or parents based on the recruit’s final compensation.
