Iowa House approves 15 year minimum for child endangerment deaths
The Iowa House passed HF 2064 97 0 to set a 15 to 35 year minimum for crimes ending in a child death, with judges weighing intent and cruelty in the most heinous cases. The bill ties to Kamryn Schlitter’s death and aims to curb parole eligibility for child killers. It also advances HF 2406 moving school board elections to November and expands career technical education to address skilled worker shortages.
