What’s in it

AI summary If a person under civil commitment for sexual violence commits a new crime and is sent to a county jail, the state will pay that county $50 per day. This money is used to cover the costs of keeping that person in jail. The state will use specific funds set aside for treating these individuals to make these payments.1

Read the official explanation

This bill requires the department of health and human services (HHS) to reimburse a county at a rate of $50 per day when a sexually violent predator (SVP) is transferred to the county’s jail after the SVP committed a public offense while subject to an order of civil commitment. If the SVP is subsequently sentenced to confinement at the county jail, HHS must reimburse the jail at a rate of $50 per day for each day the SVP is confined. The bill requires HHS to use funds appropriated to HHS for costs associated with the treatment and commitment of sexually violent predators in the unit located at the state mental health institute at Cherokee, or use funds transferred pursuant to Code section 218.6 for the payment of reimbursements to county jails.
