Description
Senate File 275 as amended establishes the criminal offense of assault by threat of a targeted attack, and provides penalties. The Bill provides that a person commits assault by threat of a targeted attack when the person threatens to cause serious injury or death to persons assembled in a public place, school building, or any occupied structure, which thereby places such persons in reasonable apprehension of serious injury or death, or threatens to commit such an act under circumstances raising a reasonable expectation that the threat will be carried out. The Bill provides that the criminal offense of assault by threat of a targeted attack is an aggravated misdemeanor.
Background
An aggravated misdemeanor is punishable by confinement for no more than two years and a fine of at least $625 but not more than $6,250.
Assumptions

- Marginal costs for county jails cannot be estimated due to a lack of data. For purposes of this analysis, the marginal cost for county jails is assumed to be $50 per day.
