“We support this bill”
Justice Reform Overhaul Act of 2024
Rationale
Victims deserve real justice, not empty rights. Plea bargaining, weak bail rules and weak traffic enforcement undermine fairness and safety for all.
Proposed Changes
| Law | Previous | Proposed | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Victims' Rights |
Right to be informed and to make an impact statement
|
Victims are formal participants, heard on plea, sentence and parole
|
|
| 2 | Plea Bargaining |
Regulated: sentence discount capped, judge must approve
|
Prohibited; every case goes to trial
|
|
| 3 | Bail & Pre-Trial Detention |
Risk assessment decides release
|
Detain everyone charged until trial
|
|
| 4 | Traffic Enforcement |
Fixed cameras and a points system leading to disqualification
|
Automated enforcement everywhere: every offence detected and fined automatically
