Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a person who intentionally causes bodily harm to a
probation, extended supervision, and parole agent; a community supervision agent;
or an aftercare agent is guilty of a Class H felony. This bill expands the crime so that
intentionally harming a family member of the agent, or threatening to harm the
agent or a family member of the agent, is also a Class H felony.
Because this bill creates a new crime or revises a penalty for an existing crime,
the Joint Review Committee on Criminal Penalties may be requested to prepare a
report.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SB185,1 5Section 1. 940.20 (2m) (a) 1p. of the statutes is created to read:
