A group of lawmakers in Concord wants to end life-without-parole sentences in prison.Several bills this year aim to give incarcerated felons more opportunities to regain their freedom, but one controversial piece of legislation would end life sentences without the possibility of parole. That bill is facing stiff opposition, including from advocates for truth in sentencing. If you think sentences are too harsh, you should change the penalties that are set out in statute. You can do it one by one, Donna Sytek said.Authors of the bill did carve out an exception for convicts of capital murder, which would bar one current New Hampshire inmate from seeking parole. On a vote of 12-8, the New Hampshire House Criminal Justice Committee gave the bill a negative recommendation.
Members passed HB 197, a bill that would expand that state s stand your ground law. Under the current law, in certain situations, New Hampshire citizens have the right to use deadly force against another person outside their own home. This bill would now extend that right to their vehicles.
Rep. Daryl Abbas, a Republican of Salem, is the chairman for the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee. He spoke in support of the bill. If article 2A of the New Hampshire constitution allows a person the right to bear arms to protect yourself, your family, your property and your state, it s only natural that our written laws would allow you to protect yourself and your family to the same degree inside your vehicle as if you were inside your home,” Abbas said.
Rick Ganley: You were officially elected on the same day that thousands of pro-Trump extremists stormed the U.S. Capitol. I know Governor Sununu has said President Trump is partly responsible for that violence and called those involved in the attack domestic terrorists, though he has stopped short of calling for the president s removal. I m wondering if you agree that the president is responsible for last week s violence.
Sherman Packard: Last week s violence was inexcusable. You know, sitting here and speculating as to who s responsible and who isn t responsible, to me, isn t as relevant as condemning what happened down there. Everybody has the right to protest. I mean, that to me, it s a freedom of speech issue. And I will stand up and defend it, you know, to my last breath in a manner of speaking.
done in black jackets and air 15. there were five sheriffs in the backyard with their guns drawing, facing todd s house. what happened next? marian cockrell. i saw todd walking backward across the street. stop right there. turn around. put your hands-on top of your head. drop down your knees. # he said nobody else is inside there. my wife is dead. how could it be? rachel winkly was just 37 years old with those three little girl with whom meant the whole world. where is your wife? she s in when you enter the h house, you turn to the right. you are sure she s dead? i am positive. how are you sure? no pulse and no breathing.
normalcy but that also speaks to a kind of status quo presidency, not a status quo from turump, bt a return to something. democratic party often has reached for younger generational choices who represent marked change from the past and so he may be he may be challenged from someone far younger than him. that was well worth a bonus answer. you know what your weakness is, many strengths, too many strengths, that s your weakness. thank you. thank you very much, always a pleasure. i want to turn to something that hasn t gotten a lot of attention today, the anti-hate vote in washington today, h house resolution 183, what a mess it was to get to this point. it passed but boy oh boy does it say a lot about what shouldn t happen in politics.
