Bill overview
This bill requires New Jersey’s Pretrial Services program to recommend pretrial detention for defendants charged with certain firearms offenses, including those involving ‘ghost guns’ and offenses related to the manufacture of untraceable firearms. It expands the list of offenses for which Pretrial Services must recommend no release, specifically targeting crimes involving destructive devices, illegal firearm transfers, and offenses involving bias intimidation. The bill aims to increase the likelihood of pretrial detention for individuals charged with serious firearm-related crimes.
