Senator De Koster notes a week dominated by Criminal Code revision discussions in the Iowa Senate. He describes careful handling of House amendments, the creation of a noncontroversial package, and cautious leadership under Senator Gene Glenn to ensure acceptable refinements.
The debate on the Criminal Code revis ion covered death definitions to discovery in criminal cases with Senate and House members debating minimum sentences for drunk driving and felonies. Supporters favor two day jail terms for first offenses and five year minimums for violent crimes, noting cost pressures and prison capacity. The author credits Senator Glenn and predicts a final vote by early June with potential conference committee fixes.
