Instauration de peines planchers pour certains crimes et délits

Stage first_chamberUpdated 4mo ago

This legislative proposal seeks to establish mandatory minimum sentences (floor penalties) for specific crimes and misdemeanors. The goal is to ensure a consistent level of punishment for certain offenses, reducing judicial discretion in sentencing to provide a more predictable and deterrent legal response. This change would primarily affect the judiciary by limiting their ability to lower sentences below a set threshold, and individuals convicted of the targeted offenses who would face guaranteed minimum prison terms.
