Senate Bill 94 aims to address issues related to riots and vandalism by establishing new criminal penalties and civil liabilities. The bill defines a riot as a public disturbance involving violence or threats of violence by an assembly of at least three persons, creating a clear and present danger to property or personal safety. It introduces a Class I felony for those who incite a riot and a Class H felony for individuals who commit acts of violence while participating in a riot. Additionally, the bill creates a civil cause of action for individuals who suffer injuries or property damage due to violations of laws against vandalism or participation in a riot, allowing them to seek reparations from both the offenders and those who provided material support for the offenses.

Furthermore, the bill prohibits government officials from imposing limitations on law enforcement agencies regarding their authority to arrest or detain individuals involved in riot or vandalism activities. It also protects law enforcement officers from punitive actions if they participate in investigations related to these violations. The new legal provisions include definitions for key terms such as "government entity," "government official," and "law enforcement officer," and outline the responsibilities of offenders to repair damages caused by their actions. Overall, Senate Bill 94 seeks to enhance accountability for riot-related activities and ensure robust law enforcement responses.
