Several Republican lawmakers in Kentucky have proposed a three-strikes law. It would keep people who are already incarcerated locked up after being convicted of a third violent felony.
“We cannot just stand by as our state’s most violent offenders circulate between the courts, the correction system and back on our streets committing crimes,” he said.— a powerful synthetic opioid blamed as a key factor for the state’s persistently high death toll from drug overdoses. The proposal would allow for the death penalty or life in prison without parole for knowingly selling fentanyl or a fentanyl derivative that results in a fatal overdose.
The law would also require prosecutors to seek the death penalty when evidence indicates a law enforcement officer was intentionally killed while performing his or her duties.
