Lawton Senate OKs deferred term for drug violators
The Oklahoma State Senate concurred with House amendments to a bill allowing suspended or deferred sentences for first offenders under 21 convicted of drug law violations. If signed by Gov. Boren, the act would take effect 90 days after adjournment. the measure previously faced veto in 1974. The House rejected the emergency clause, and debate included strong views from Sen. Cate and Sen. Porter. A separate helmet law for motorcyclists remains in limbo with potential 10 percent federal funding loss cited as leverage.
