Auto Theft Penalties May Be Cut
The Senate Highways and Motor Vehicles Committee approved a bill to reduce auto theft penalties from 1-20 years to 1-7 years. The measure keeps a first offense fine of 500 dollars and six months in county jail and extends the 1-7 year term to second and subsequent auto theft convictions. A further amendment sets a 1-7 year term for repeated breaking into cars. Protests from Governor aide John McElroy, who argued the changes aid prisoner rehabilitation, were not enough to block the bill.
