Senator Looney speaks on a bill for repealing of the state's death penalty provision. According to an analysis by the non-partisan Office of Legislative Research, the bill "renames the crime of capital felony as murder with special circumstances, eliminates the death penalty as a sentencing option for crimes committed starting on the bill's effective date, and makes the penalty for this new crime life imprisonment without the possibility of release. Under current law, the penalty for a capital felony is either the death penalty or life imprisonment without the possibility of release.
