Bill overview
This bill expands Nevada law to increase penalties for crimes committed against older adults and vulnerable individuals. Specifically, it adds theft, certain types of property conversion, and criminal deceptive trade practices to the list of offenses that trigger an additional criminal penalty, which can be imposed consecutively with the standard sentence. Additionally, individuals convicted of these crimes may also be liable for a civil penalty, with funds collected going to support victims of elder abuse and the investigation of related crimes.
