Gov. Malloy Launches Conversation on Expanding ‘Second Chance Society’ Initiatives in Connecticut
Governor Dannel P. Malloy, during a speech today at a Connecticut Law Review symposium on criminal justice reform, said that he is launching a conversation on how the state can build on Connecticut's "Second Chance Society" reforms. While Connecticut has been a national leader in criminal justice, some of the ideas regarding juvenile justice proposed today would be first-in-the-nation reforms. Shifting from a one-size-fits-all approach within the criminal justice system, Connecticut aims to differentiate and tailor its approach by potentially raising the age of the juvenile justice system's jurisdiction through age 20 instead of age 17, as well as allowing low-risk young adults aged 21 through 25 to have their cases heard confidentially, their records sealed, and the opportunity to have those records expunged. He also discussed exploring bail bond reform.
