Bill would mandate jail for crimes against elderly
From Albany Bureau. A bill approved by the State Senate and sent to the Assembly would require mandatory jail for serious crimes against the elderly or physically disabled and longer minimum sentences for such offenses. Criminials who victimize the elderly would face stricter plea bargaining limits in class C cases, with Sen Martin Knorr urging jail for offenders. In Syracuse, five elderly women were targeted in the last six weeks with threats to cut off fingers for resisting thefts. locals see crime as a major fear for seniors. Ang Silverman of Syracuse Parks and Recreation said tougher laws could deter crime and aid the elderly.
