The Work I’ve Accomplished

• Significantly reduced fentanyl levels for prosecution.
• Decreased felony theft and larceny thresholds from $1,200 to $750 so we can prosecute those performing smash and grabs more frequently.
• Eliminated offenses that should not be eligible for early termination or reduced probation: residential burglary, discharging a firearm into/from a structure or vehicle, possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, carrying a concealed weapon.
• Eliminated the diversion court option for those who are charged with Category A felonies and sex offenses.
• Removed the distinction between soliciting a minor and being caught by an undercover cop who was posing as a minor. Soliciting a minor comes with a steeper penalty and the same should be applied to those caught during a sting operation.
• Allowed sex trafficking victims to apply to the Victims of Crime Fund for 48 months, which can be used for housing, childcare, education, etc.
• Strengthened Child Luring Laws.
• Created the Nevada Sex Offender Registry.
• Established that those convicted of certain crimes must submit to a DNA test
• Increased reporting for abuse and neglect of children in schools so bad teachers and personnel cannot continue to go from school-to-school and state-to-state and abuse our children.
• Created the SafeVoice system which allows for any student or person to report any violent or unlawful acts being conducted or threatened at school.
• Provided transparency, that was lacking, for parents of reports of substantiated abuse in schools.
• Eliminated the statute of limitations for sexual assault if the identity of the person is established with DNA evidence.
