Modifies penalties for acts of terrorism in Michigan, increasing mandatory minimum sentences.
Michigan HB5831 amends the state's terrorism statute to increase the mandatory minimum sentence for committing an act of terrorism from 25 years to life imprisonment. If the terrorist act results in death, the penalty is now life imprisonment without parole. The bill also retains the option for a fine of up to $100,000. This amendatory act will take effect 90 days after being enacted into law, contingent upon the passage of House Bill No. 5830.
