Bill H.186 aims to amend current sentencing laws related to the sale or dispensing of regulated drugs that result in death. Specifically, the bill seeks to eliminate the court's discretion to impose a sentence of less than the mandatory two-year minimum prison term for individuals convicted of this offense.
By removing the ability of the court to tailor sentences based on the interests of justice, the bill establishes a stricter framework for punishment in cases involving regulated drugs and fatalities. This legislative change reflects a commitment to addressing the serious consequences of drug-related offenses and ensuring that offenders face a minimum level of accountability.
