Crimes: penalties; penalties for discharging a firearm at a motor vehicle; increase fines if a minor is in the vehicle. Amends 1931 PA 328 (MCL 750.1 - 750.568) by adding sec. 234g.

This bill, known as Messiah's Law, creates a new felony offense for intentionally firing a gun at a motor vehicle that the shooter knows or should know is occupied. The law directly affects individuals who commit this act by establishing criminal penalties that include up to 10 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000. If the vehicle contains a minor, the penalties increase to a maximum of 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $20,000. The legislation amends Michigan's penal code by adding a new section to address this specific type of firearm discharge.
