HB 1066 -- Bail Proceedings

Sponsor:  Harris (23)

Currently, bail is not available to defendants under a sentence
of death or imprisonment for life.  This bill expands the scope
of defendants to whom bail is unavailable to include defendants
who have pled guilty to or been found guilty of any sexual
offense under Chapters 566, 568, or 573, RSMo, where the victim
was younger than 17 years of age when the crime was committed.
