Under existing law, a person charged with a crime committed during his or her minority which involves moral turpitude or is a felony is required to be investigated and examined by the court to determine if he or she should be granted youthful offender status.
This bill would provide that a person would not be eligible to be granted youthful offender status if the crime the person is charged with contains as an element of the charge that the defendant intentionally inflicted serious physical injury or intentionally killed the victim in the commission of the crime.
