California AB1667 prohibits plea bargaining for serious felonies, including selling fentanyl to minors.
California AB1667 amends the Penal Code to prohibit plea bargaining for serious felonies, including selling fentanyl or fentanyl analogs to minors. The bill specifies that district attorneys should prosecute violent sex crimes under "one strike," "three strikes," or habitual sex offender statutes instead of engaging in plea bargaining. It also lists other serious felonies where plea bargaining is not allowed unless specific conditions are met. The bill aims to ensure that certain serious offenses receive appropriate sentencing without the influence of plea agreements.
