Criminal Justice Reform

This past summer, Kentucky’s Governor created a council to consider proposed changes to the state’s criminal justice system.  The council has created proposals for criminal justice reform in the state.  This would result in reduced jail time for many lower level offenses.  This new approach is often referred to by the slogan, “Smart on Crime.”  Lawmakers will consider the council’s recommendations in coming legislative sessions.
