Gov Hutchinson to sign bills and executive order

Stand Your Ground Law  Hutchinson says he will be signing SB 24, also known as the Stand Your Ground bill, but emphasized that there is no need for the bill.   “While I have often said there is no compelling need for this legislation, I am persuaded by the changes that have been made since it was introduced 2 years ago,” Hutchinson said. There is nothing in the language of the bill that would lead to different outcomes in the criminal justice system.   The ‘stand your ground’ law will end Arkansas’ duty to retreat if the person using deadly force is not a felon, is lawfully present, has a reasonable belief they are being threatened, is not engaged in criminal activity and if the person is not the initial aggressor. 

Gov Hutchinson signs Stand Your Ground and Voter ID bills into law

/ Gov. Asa Hutchinson signed a “Stand Your Ground” bill into law Wednesday (March 3) despite his belief that it’s not necessary, but he hopes the Legislature also will pass a hate crimes bill as a complementary measure. The Arkansas governor spoke about the legislation during a “Pen and Pad” session in his office with reporters. Act 250 by Sen. Bob Ballinger, R-Ozark, states that a person no longer has a duty to retreat before threatening or using deadly physical force if they are lawfully present, have a reasonable belief that they or another person faced death or serious physical injury, and did not provoke the confrontation.
