Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill creates a crime for intentionally conveying any threat or false
information concerning an attempt to use a dangerous weapon to injure or kill a
person on school property, on transportation provided by a school, or at an event
sanctioned by a school. A person who is convicted of the crime is guilty of a Class I
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.
