The bill amends the Michigan Code of Criminal Procedure, specifically section 22 of chapter XVII, to update the scoring of offense variables for various categories of crimes. For crimes against a person, the bill specifies that offense variables 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19, and 20 should be scored, while offense variables 5 and 6 are to be scored for homicide-related offenses. Additionally, it introduces a new scoring requirement for offense variable 16 in cases involving violations of section 110a of the Michigan penal code, and offense variables 17 and 18 are to be scored if the offense involves the operation of certain vehicles.
For crimes against property, the scoring includes offense variables 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 19, and 20. The bill also outlines scoring for crimes involving controlled substances, public order, public trust, and public safety, with specific variables designated for each category. Notably, the bill stipulates that it will not take effect unless two other specified bills from the 103rd Legislature are enacted into law.
